June 20th, 2006 Northeast Colorado Supercells
Last Updated on Monday, 04 January 2010 22:55 Written by Roger Hill
A few boundaries, good shear and adequate moisture would allow supercells to develop in northeast Colorado and western Nebraska. We first targeted a supercell and complex northeast of Alliance, but when we saw it was a left split we blew it off (mistake as it produced tornadoes!). The storms in Colorado were quite outflow dominant, except for the third supercell which was a respectable classic supercell near Yuma. The Colorado storms never produced tornadoes, but did have nice structure, lots of lightning and hail to baseball size.
High based supercell with wall cloud. This storm produced golfball sized hail.
Inflow band looking west. It looked good at this point! Gusted out base with scud blowing out from under it.
Nice base with lowering from Yuma county supercell. One of many close and scenic cgs.
