Through a translucent portion of this stout supercell’s main precipitation area, a substantial stovepipe tornado continued to churn up the southwestern Nebraska landscape. This wide-angle view includes the inflow tail at left, and downshear tail cloud at right, which curved along the inner rim of the same forward-flank core that bent southeastward and just overhead. Being just inside the edge of heavy precip at the surface (overhang aloft extended a few miles closer to the tornado) offered an uncommon view of the spectacle. Despite the seeming robustness of the tornado, this marked the final few minutes of over an hour of nearly continuous tornado production from the same part of the slow-moving storm.
