Attempt #1 |
Attempt #2 |
Attempt #3 and success! Supercell is born and going strong! |
Sucking moisture off the ground under its base. |
Perfect. |
Subi's second supercell! |
Very organized forward flank with rear flank peeking in far left. |
Rear flank (RFD) left of center starting to rotate around small wall cloud. |
Wall cloud/scud extends further to the surface as RFD gets closer! |
Rotating around the wall cloud. Great structure! |
Wrapped in rain. RFD has now occluded the wall cloud/funnel. |
A second RFD develops left of center near Ellsworth, KS. |
Sucking in lots of moisture! |
Great structure on this supercell. |
Ragged wall cloud. |
Third RFD wrapping around wall cloud, trying to produce...again. |
Wrap, wrap, wrap! |
Very close to producing, but alas it wasn't to be. |
Storm kept sucking moisture off the ground! Gypsum Hills are annoying! |
Some old ruins. |
Mature, very strong supercell. Look at the waves of the mid-level inflow! |
Textbook structure on the mesocyclone. |
A closer peek! |
Attempt four at a tornado. |
Getting ragged again. |
North of Abilene, still great structure, but all shrouded and rain, outflow dominant. |
Fantastic mammatus show south of Manhattan. |
Elevated and pretty at sunset! |
Not a great photo, but I picked up the family. This is a shot from my 11 month old's first storm chase! |
It is upon us! My son's first core punch! :) |
First attempt at producing a tornado. |
