Two days in a row, fast-moving supercells rolled out of southeastern Montana, across northeastern Wyoming, and across the Belle Fourche and St. Onge areas in South Dakota. The first, here, was later in the day, and visually spectacular at this site. After the rear-flank gust front swept past, the storm briefly showed off this still-intense, deeply convective rear-flank updraft region, before being obscured by low clouds and racing off into the darkness. Scenes such as this return the intangible reward for every dollar, minute and mile spent traveling the Great Plains yearly. These are blessings I do not take for granted.
