[Part 2 of 2] The same air that was in a supercell 20 minutes ago is now long gone, much of it hurled into the prevailing upper level winds as anvil material, some condensed into rain and hail that pounds the land below. All the while, the storm pulsates, expands and/or contracts, strengthens and weakens, still dependent on the moisture, temperature, wind speed and wind direction of the atmosphere around. These magnificent storms evolve always, in all ways. They may constantly adjust their width, depth, rotation strength, rain and hail output, electric fields, motion, and visual appearance. Their shapes and hues change as long as they last, throughout the passing light of an afternoon and, if fortunate, well into the night with uniquely profuse lightning displays. Nothing else in the sky compares to them. I never will tire of beholding their splendor. Part 1
