Tornado Chasing

Chasecation 2015 Day 11 – Winding through the Black Hills

Today brought us to the Rapid City, South Dakota area on the northern end of the Black Hills. A brilliant supercell eventually appeared over the Black Hills, though good vantage points to see it well were difficult to find due to the terrain.

The next couple of days hint at more possible tornado activity after a lull over the past several days. The threat areas will be focused over the northern and central Plains, and there is a possibility of a more enhanced threat in the central Plains on Wednesday.

Here’s one shot of today’s supercell that just sat over the Rapid City area for a few hours.
