This small but sporadically sparking supercell fronted a series of storms that originated over or just behind Pikes Peak, just left of distant middle, and rolled east-southeastward across the southern parts of the Colorado Springs area. Each of the two separate storm bases in the background also exhibited visual supercellular characteristics at times, though located atop the outflow from this one. The chain of storms trained over many of the same spots, offering copious amounts of hail (some severe) and flash flooding.
