August 14th was a day that I was hoping would provide for a great nighttime lightning opportunity. A short wave was timed so that intense thunderstorm development would occur during the early evening. I was not disappointed. Great moisture and instability would couple with lift along a stationary boundary to provide intense supercell thunderstorms. The storm pictured here produced golfball sized hail, 75 MPH winds and two funnel clouds that I saw. Please click on a picture below for a larger image.

After dark several supercells developed. The electrification was magnificant! |
Awesome CG activity! |
You can clearly see the wet RFD and circular base of this supercell. |
Beautiful lightning! |
