Storm Chasing in South Central Kansas. This storm would later go on to drop a tornado near Cedar Vale Kansas.
Another capture from our storm from the other night. Taken from the Richmond International Airport on 8/5/2020. Looking over Highland Springs, VA.
The hail core creates giant hail stones. This is because the storms are sucking up moisture to incredible altitudes. Eventually it falls back down as hail.
Got up, took a walk, had lunch, drove to Dayton for a wedding meeting, got stood up by the client, went to visit Grandma, only stayed a few minutes before a severe storm watch was issued for Cincinnati, picked up Marion's pizza, drove south through heavy rain, listened to SKYWARN, determined that the storms were pretty blah, came home, napped, went to Bob Evans for dinner.
Not a bad day. Just not what I planned.
An embedded supercell along a line of severe storms produces a weak wall cloud. There was a weak couplet on velocity radar. West of Innerkip, Ontario August 17, 2016.
I captured my first lightning bolt tonight on the way home from work.
Here, I am taking one of the 30-something pics it took to get the lightning bolt. Extra clever points for climbing to a higher point on the edge of the storm with a four story drop on that wall behind me, as I am on the top of the new Target parking structure in Charlotte.
The storms move pretty quickly through here, hopefully, I can capture some more as summer progresses.
A bit over processed, but it does illustrate the trailing edge of the storm.
