This supercell wandered over from Michigan and really matured as it neared Chatham.

Beautiful structure, you can also see dust getting kicked up near the ground.

Fellow storm chasers Dave Patrick and Mark Robinson (left side) point towards the storm as a wall of dust, rain and crap blow towards us with a giant whales mouth above.

After chasing the first storm to the lake a second supercell developed and tracked over the exact same areas as the first.

The storm looked far more linear than the first one did and the radar indicated meso signature was only a 30 knot gate-gate shear couplet but it was persistent.

The setting sun was perfect, the colours were beautiful and these photos just don't do the storm justice! If only I could have caught all the lightning crawling around..

Can't describe it, just awesome!

As the storm neared it developed this double and then triple stacked shelf cloud. The core was getting mean looking, it was green but had been turned yellow by the reddish setting sun behind the storm. COOL!

Well I've run out of a way to describe what's happening here. I was shooting video on three cameras, taking stills with 2 cameras and loosing my mind with the beauty!

This was one of the last photos I blasted off, at this point I was trying to not leave but I had to. The growling was mix with a waterfall like sound as wind and rain started to beat down in the fields getting ever closer. When the wires above my head started to begin to whistle I knew I had to run into "drive and record" mode.
