Cole Tornado and Supercell Structure

2023-04-20 By Roger Edwards

Cole Tornado and Supercell Structure

Often opaquely to densely rain-wrapped, this brief thinning of precipitation orbiting the tornado defined it nicely for visual identification during a relatively early, thick stage.  Surrounding storm structure, as you can see, was amazing.  Unfortunately, this tornado killed two people near Cole, despite being both in a tornado watch, and well-warned.  The visual form of this stout tornado, during this stage, reminded me a lot of the Campo/Pritchett, Colorado vortex from two years before.

About

Welcome to SkyPix, an online photo book of clouds, weather and water by Roger Edwards. As in a printed coffee-table book, every image has its own page with a unique story. After all, meaningful photography is much more than just picture-taking; it is visually rendering a moment in place and time from a perspective like none other. As a scientist and an artist, I hope my deep passion for the power and splendor of our skies and waters shines through in these pages. If you are a cloud and weather aficionado, outdoor enthusiast, outdoor or nature photographer, art lover, or anyone who craves learning, enjoy...
