stormdoctor > Near Tucamcari, NM, on May 28, 2008.  A multicellular cluster with frequent rotation prompted multiple tornado warnings on this cell.  Occasionally up to 3 separate TVS's were noted on radar.  But as this photo shows, the behavior of the storm was more consistent with mesocyclones forming on outflow from the HP cells.  New Mexico has amazing landscapes, but few roads.  It was a beautiful sight to see this wall cloud and scenery.

stormdoctor > Despite its appearance, the trees in the foreground are illuminated by an electrical light, not the lightning strike.  Though when I saw the photo on my camera, I thought I'd hit paydirt.  As it is, I still love this CG strike.  Near Tulsa, OK, June 7, 2007.

stormdoctor > Lightning strikes as the HP storm pulses.  This is a rare photo for me in that the sun is still brightly shining.  The strength of the strike is evident by how powerfully this exposed on this short-exposure shot.  Taken near the OK/TX border on May 31, 2007.
