Supercell South Side

2024-07-24 By Roger Edwards

Supercell South Side

While a tornado was well underway in the main mesocyclone region (off screen to right), the south rim of the Midland/Odessa supercell offered a stunning wall of plated cloud structure.  In fact, this part of the large and complex storm later separated from the original, tornadic area, and itself became a nontornadic right-mover.  Even with an ongoing tornado that demanded close attention, it was important and astounding to scan the entire sky, to behold a holistic majesty of form and process, of a scale that renders one storm observer feel small, insignificant and inconsequential in the grand scheme.

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...
