Buenas noches.
Yesterday i was chasing nice supercell in central parts of Kansas (Russell to Salina area).
2500km, two sleepless night, but it worth.
I have choosed Salina as my base. Supercell developed in short period of time, 150 km W of Salina.
With full speed into the storm!

Going S toward Ellsworth, but severe wind gusts and clouds of dust, made me turn into the first road to the E
Beautiful formations

¡¡AMAZING!!!
Love the arcus and shelf cloud
The structure of the radar images is impressive with the hook echo and the classic BWER (inflow area), incredible those 70-75dbz reflectivities of -hail near Lucas, I have never seen those reflectivities here in Spain :o
Thanks for sharing ;)

Impresionante. Gracias por compartir

Anyway, What could I say after enjoying it? ;D ;D ;D I'm so jealous! :P
