Day 141 of 365

This day started out as 6 hours of shooting the state track meet. The forecast called for a "slight chance of evening storms" which I hoped would make for a cool photo op over the track meet (maybe a rainbow over some hurdles? lol). I honestly just thought it would be a few local elevated rain showers. Of course, no storms ever popped while I was shooting the track meet. When I finished (around 3:30) *INTOtheRFD texted me saying that there was a tornado-warned storm north of Omaha. This came as a surprise to me, as I didn't think the storms today were supposed to be any good, if they developed at all. We ended up monitoring radar until 5:30 or so in the afternoon. Once a storm popped out west, we headed out and hoped for the best. Was really surprised when we got to the storm and it actually had structure. Of course, 10 minutes after we got to the storm, it started to shrivel and die (this shot was taken when it was dying, but still looked decent). In 15 minutes, this storm shriveled until there was literally no updraft left. </longstory>
Luckily Chris and I ended up seeing a fantastic mammatus display to entertain us for the rest of the evening. You can see my timelapse of it here: [link]

:peace:

So many storms but so few in my area. Not that I should be complaining about the lack of tornadoes in Nebraska, but... without cool storms we dono't have a whole lot else to photograph :P
