stormdoctor > As I ended my chase vacation this year, I was given a beautiful send-off by mother nature.  As the dryline pushed into central KS, the merged anvils of a line of tornadic storms captured the sunset perfectly over this landscape near Burlington, CO, on May 29, 2008.  The photo leaves me longing to be back on the Plains again, which I'll be...next year.

stormdoctor > An outflow dominant, southward propagating supercell, the only one that formed during my two week trip, took me through the beautiful Red River Valley on the TX/OK borders.  This is near Lawton, OK.  The Red River dirt is very powdery, like flour, and I actually ruined one of my video cameras here years ago simply by having it fall into the dirt.

stormdoctor > Upslope winds and cool northerly air created this scenic cloudscape of lenticular-type low clouds along the Colorado front range.
stormdoctor > Spectacular non-chasing day sight.  The cow in the photo spooked me from behind, but then blended nicely into the photo.  This species of cactus is native to SE Colorado.  Near Pueblo.
stormdoctor > LP supercell with funnel.  Note the knuckles on the updraft, the clear updraft and downdraft.  This storm would disappear within minutes.
