Amazing skies at the back of a large thunderstorm cluster over northern Nebraska.
Although the storm was already a 20 miles away, there was much electricity in the air: our hairs were standing right up ! This isn't without risk but fortunately for us there were no nearby strikes under the backsheared anvil....
Possibly too many leading lines happening here—from May 23rd north of Genoa, Colorado. The tail end of an ongoing line of storms is on the right with new development offset further back to the left. RFD surges were kicking into that line in spots, and a tornado dipped out of one about 45 minutes later.
May 27th last year near Paducah, Texas, as a disorganized storm drifted away in the sunset. It dumped a razor sharp boundary of rain less than a mile north that tried to slide me in a ditch as I made my way back to the highway. Shout out to those sneaky, cake batter roads! :)
This cell northwest of Cameron wasn't sure what to do with itself. It just couldn't split into proper halves no matter how much it needed to. Anticyclonic (left) and cyclonic (right) updrafts spent around an hour and a half coexisting until a mutual oblivion over the North Rim. Viewing the withering phase north of Gray Mountain & over the Little Colorado River Gorge here.
Severe warned storm over Topock, Arizona. This was the second of three that hopped over the Colorado River along I-40. The last in the trio is the one that picked up a tornado warning, but this one took its sweet time showing off before that last one moved in.
I flew out to Denver on April 22nd, 2014 on a "See Text" in order to be ready for the better setup the next day. But I still caught up with some rad storms in Kansas towards the evening. Here's a ragged shelf cloud approaching Scott City.
Starting to get stoked for storm season, so I'm digging through the archives looking for any images I missed that might be worth editing
April 25th—Lubbock, Texas. Energy depletion was so extreme I couldn't summon the motivation to chase this amazing nocturnal lightning-maker north of town. As a consolation, I set up in a parking lot near the hotel to build the makings of a stack. 10 frames seemed to be the right balance.
August 28, 2011 - Kearney Nebraska US
Late August 2011. The storm season sometimes lasts here til mid October. Other years, were lucky to see anything severe after the 2nd week of September.
Every years is different and while I still had the chance with final August storm I grabbed my gear and stayed local as this storm was coming to me.
Non Severe, but this storm had it's moments to give, photographically speaking.

Saskatchewan storm near Portal Border Crossing at 8:05pm
I muted the blue tones as I found them distracting, but brilliant blues! Amazing storm, best I have seen in Canada so far this year!
Intercepted this beautiful tornado warned supercell just outside of Morgans Mill, Texas last weekend. This storm put down a tornado minutes before we arrived to this point. I was waiting on it to show itself, but it never did. Had to get out fast before the core arrived. I was hearing reports of baseball sized hail, represented by the teal color in the middle of the storm. Very cool tail cloud forming on the horizon. Amazing storm!
I rove the sight of a blossoming cumulonimbus on the horizon. The anvil doesn't look very healthy here, and this was not a promising supercell day. But it was wonderfully photogenic and beat out a couple tornado days later on for overall enjoyability—May 18th, Fay, OK
Another dull day storm chasing across the US.. !! Sunset on this evening a lightning storm passes us by with bolts of lightning going off everywhere and a double rainbow as well....

This little cloud hanging from a supercell near Strasburg, Colorado was rotating as it crossed right in front of us. We assume it was a brief wall cloud because the area of rotation was right in front of us on radar. Being this is a wide-angle, 14mm lens on a full-frame...this cloud felt super close and almost above us.
Monsoon flow is finally settling in and there was some decent lightning around the Peaks today. One cell lofted overhead and started tossing bolts nearby as I hunkered down in the car. Tough thing with closer strikes is getting them to hit in-frame. I _almost_ caught the landing point on this one.
DAY TWO of the Tempest Tours, Clouds 365 Project Storm Chasing Expedition. Left Ogallala, NE this morning with the target of Eastern CO and NW Kansas. This was the 3rd storm of the day, captured North of Goodland, Kansas. Loved the contrast with the fields and the wild look of the incoming shelf cloud. Amazing day! #clouds365 #stormchasing #kansas #supercell
While watching the evening news, a sever weather warning was issued for parts north and east of Calgary. Silly me thought it would be fun to try and get a better look at the clouds. While I was standing on the side of the road shooting, the roar of this cloud overhead of me started getting louder and well, closer. When the hair on my arms started to stand up and the wind almost blew my tripod over, I thought it was a good time to get in the truck and get going!
Territorial Road is a nicely graded stretch of dirt south of Winslow on AZ-99 where I photographed a line of approaching storms. This is a 6-shot composite of images captured with a lightning trigger over the course 5 minutes. 8 October 2016.
The gates at Haskell Farms were closed for the day as this gusty thing rolled through. Mud puddles were still open for business, thankfully. April 29th near Haskell, Texas.
A multiple-vortex tornado works it's way across a road with lots a storm chasers looking on.

Six miles south of Seymour, Texas, on May 27th. I spent a couple hours surfing a nocturnal supercell from Crowell to Seymour and then let it roll by. It kindly let me snag a few branchy CG lightning strikes as it passed.
We were in the middle of repositioning along an I-10 frontage road when it started to drop back there.
Whipped around for quick shots while touchdown happened behind the overpass. Random CG bolt was kind enough to photobomb things further before we hustled to a better vantage for the rest of the show.
