Reports & Pictures Chase Day 38

[Paul Sherman]

Started the day in Council Bluffs (Iowa) and made the long trek across Nebraska on the I-80. Storms would today form on the Laramie Divide in Wyoming and head South Eastwards towards NE Colorado. We left late but got on the best storm coming out of Goshen County and intercepted along Highway 71 South of Kimball. The Storm was pulsing up and down a lot, the best phase was from almost nothingness to Baseball Sized Hail right above our heads, we managed to get out with just a few golf balls, other chase vehicles coming out had cracked windscreens.

 

The structure was really pretty and the colour differences between the fields and sky amazing, headed east towards Sterling where we watched the decaying Classic to LP Stage of the Supercell and are in a great position for a Fathers Day chase today.
