July 11th, 2011 Western, Nebraska Sculpted Supercell
Last Updated on Tuesday, 02 August 2011 12:50 Written by Roger Hill
July 11th resulted in a lot more than I thought we would get. Modest CAPE and shear ended up producing a few pretty supercells, one of which anchored east of Chadron, NE. Storms had decent structure and respectable electrification. We sat around Chadron for a big part of the afternoon until things finally started developing. Several funnel lookalikes occured that were called in as funnels/tornadoes, but of course were later discounted.
Here's a cool nearly 2 hour time lapse of the supercell:

| Lowering and it was rotating. CG to the side. | Nice shelf from a gusting tornado warned storm northwest of Harrison, NE. |
