Chase Day 15 - Reports & Pictures (ks)

Paul Sherman · May 25, 2012

After our little gamble in Colorado I knew that the Moderate Risk was off the cards but seeing as we need to be near NE Kansas for Friday we ambled over to Topeka from Lamar. I knew the boundary would continue to back build down the line from Wisconsin into Kansas and so it played out that when we got to Topeka an absolute beast of a Supercell was crawling along to our South near Ottowa (Kansas) I have seen other pictures from the east of this and it was a HP Beast of a Supercell (See Dave Lewison or google him) and you should find the picture from the other side.

We pictured it from the West and it had a pronounced Overshooting Top and Back Sheared Anvil viewed from the West.

Lovely view to keep us entertained along I-70.

What a beast of a storm, and to come in from the West at sunset, bit of a treat for a travel day!

Was a fantastic view and kept us entertained during a fairly boring drive because someone robbed the FM radio antenna from our car and wont give it back. Tom!!!!

One pic of the anvil from me....
