storms possible today
slight risk is on
shear is good
we know that something will happen
but don't know what exactly
we suspected that storms will fire
in the mountains of New Mexico
the convergence was a little bit to the east
and we hoped that storms will fire
on that convergence too
and get an isolated cell
in the beginning everything seems to be good
but more and more storms started to form
now it was difficult to choose the right storm
we turned around to get to the south
we had to drive 90 minutes to reach our target
a fresh cell
as we reached our target
we saw a supercell
what we saw there was incredible
the sight we got
defeats our tornado day in Kansas
a wish came true for me as a photographer
in the morning I talked to Dennis
while we left Lubbock
the only thing left that we must see
is a huge mothership at sunset
we got out of the car
and there it was
The Mothership!
it rotated like crazy
the whole mesocyclone was in motion
I think there is nothing left to say
if you see the pictures
then everyone can imagine what we
understand under a mothership
it was unique
I can't explain it
I was used to this only by pictures
of US storm chasers
who had the luck to see
something like this
now we look at each other
and we saw this ourselves
mother nature must have a big plan
if this day will be defeat by another
we couldn't believe the sight
of the rotating updraft
it was so unique
simply unbeatable and incomprehensible
