Supercell thunderstorms are characterized by a cycling, cylindrical
vortex of air that moves upward off the ground, which is also known as a
mesocyclone. Not only does it sound badass, but it produces some of the
most visually striking weather on Earth.
Each summer since 2009, photographer Mitch Dobrowner and guide Roger Hill
have driven through the Great Plains and high deserts of the United
States in search of these jaw-dropping forces of nature. When they find
them, Dobrowner pulls out his camera and takes breathtaking black and
white photos that capture the enormity and intensity of these churning
atmospheric formations.
There are several awesome photos over there. Those storms fascinate me, but I am really glad we don't sit in tornado alley.
