gives an account of a June 10, 1999 chase
and a June 28, 1999 chase.
| June 10, 1999: Outside of Strasburg, CO on I-70. This storm was the greenest storm I have ever seen, and yes, it was very windy. The gust front from this storm was kicking up a lot of dust and produced some brief "gustnadoes". (This storm also produced softball-sized hail, luckily we didn't witness it!!!) |
| Later on June 10, 1999...we continued east ahead of the storm. The storm's gust front produced a very nice "shelf" cloud. |
| June 28, 1999: This supercell was developing along the southern Wyoming/Nebraska border. |
| June 28, 1999: A small tornado formed out of the supercell we were chasing. It touched down outside of Scottsbluff, NE. |
| June 28, 1999: The tornado is barely visible but can be seen in the center of the photograph as a narrow gray funnel touching down in the hills in the distance. |
