An electrically prolific squall line, evolved from a Caprock supercell, continued to spark as its gust front rolled over the Low Rolling Plains of northwest Texas. Soon darkness would set in, and the northern part of this convection would become a severe wind-producing complex over western and central Oklahoma—on my way home, of course. That made for an adventuresome return in the dust, wind and rain. Declining to stop at this high and scenic spot—with the photographic and observational opportunities it offered—may have allowed time for a less tumultuous ride home, but also would have sacrificed these moments forever. Opportunities worth grabbing will involve some risk!
