stormdoctor > I gauged the distance wrong in this photo resulting in the lightning being a bit blurred (ack!). This CG illuminates the plateau to the right of the photo near midnight on May 30, 2005.
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 > Upslope winds and cool northerly air created this scenic cloudscape of lenticular-type low clouds along the Colorado front range.
stormdoctor > Supercell at sunset near Concordia, KS, with the sun sitting on the horizon to the right.
stormdoctor > Intense electrical storm near Sayre, OK. The strike to the left set off an impressive structure fire and wildland fire that fortunately was extinguished by the quick thinking of neighbors, and by the dowsing intensity of an amazing HP wet downburst. The home was threatened, but the flames extinguished shortly thereafter.

stormdoctor > I was absolutely amazed by this shot. From a storm perspective, the vault of light you see in the center background is due to penetration of a clear slot as this storm repeatedly tried to rotate and form a tornado. It never would get organized sufficiently to do so, unfortunately. But here it is pulsing and the rotation is sufficient to generate a clear slot that allowed light to filter through the back of the storm. In the foreground clouds there is a wall cloud forming. As this feature evolved, it developed a couplet with a new rain free base forming to the left (south). That was the order of the day as southward propagation of the updrafts (with undercutting of those same updrafts by outflow to the north) failed to allow tornadic development. The green fields and the white fence were spectacular contrasts.
stormdoctor > Bah--this is a "squintnado". This cell, SW of Hoxie, KS, shows I-70 on May 29, 2008. This HP cell had a visibly rain-wrapped tornado which is almost impossible to make out in the image. You may be able to see the cone tornado over the right-most "wrong way" red signpost. I only share this picture for other chasers, but I don't think it captures a tornado at its best.
