Saw it on the news this am, pretty damn impressive!
well that was close :)
Saw it on FB last night. That is terrifying and awesome at the same time!
I would have been hiding in the basement if that thing came in my direction! [Peep]
Yeah, buddy sent some pics to me... crazy!
Oddly enough, someone recently loaned me a book and there was a piece of the story that passed through Wright, WY [Coffee]
Way cool. Thanks for posting.
Wow that is awesome!
Pretty awesome display from old mother nature. As you are a resident of Windsor I suspect that you are quite sensitive to this. I would be too.
Saw it on the NASA pic of the day page. Ominous. Yep, that was ominous.

How do supercell storm clouds form? Pictured above is a time-lapse video taken last Sunday detailing the formation of one such violent supercell in eastern Wyoming, USA. Starting as part of a large and dark thunderstorm complex, the supercell comes together along with a large rotating updraft of air known as a mesocyclone. Mesocyclones form during rapid changes in wind speed and direction with height and can produce torrential rain, damaging hail, swirling winds, and sometimes tornadoes. Storm watchers are seen studying, imaging, and ultimately running from the developing storm cloud during the video. During the middle part of the video, the kilometer-wide supercell can be seen swirling ominously with a nearly flat bottom. Toward the end of the video, another swirling supercell cloud forms but then quickly dissipates.
