Day 7: R&R in Nebraska

Today the team took a little break. We decided that the small outlooked area with virtually ZERO probability for tornadoes was not worth trying to chase in, and as a result we did our best to travel from Aberdeen, South Dakota to somewhere further south. We made a quick stop in Valentine, Nebraska, grabbing ice cream from the famous Frosty's. 


After ice cream, the team went on a quick hike on a nearby trail. We tried our best to look for Geocaches and Pokemon, but alas, our discoveries were limited. 

By the end of the day, the team finished our travels in North Platte, Nebraska. Although we didn't expect to see any severe weather, the atmosphere had other plans. An amazing line of storms passed through our area, and we were lucky enough to grab some great lightning photos!
Today marked one whole week on the road! So far we've traveled through 12 different states, including MD, PA, OH, WV, IN, IL, MO, OK, IA, SD, ND, and finally NE! The next week is projected to be absolutely crazy, so if you're interested in following our adventures in real time, follow us on twitter @usnaSWIFT!!!!
