May 28 took us to northwest Nebraska and southwest South Dakota to play an advancing trough out of the Rockies. It became apparent again that moisture would be the issue as has been the case for most of the season. Storms formed along a boundary in western Nebraska and raced into South Dakota. Two supercells formed that we chased, both producing high winds and hail, but little else. We encountered intense winds with a bow echo east of Rapid City late in the evening that was quite spectacular.

Pretty structure for this high based supercell.                             Shelf cloud taken during a lighting flash at night.

Hail covering the road in Murdo, SD.                                             Hail driven by 60 MPH winds.

Hail quarter size.                                                                               Winds gusted to over 90 MPH!

Strong winds near Kadoka, SD.                                                     Tail end storm was a tornado warned supercell.
