Supercells Along And East Of Dryline


All of these images are from around 00 UTC 1 May 2012. Above is visible satellite image showing large thunderstorms from southwest Kansas, southward through the Texas Big Bend country into Mexico.


Regional radar charts (above and below, from NCAR at the base-scan level) capture numerous supercells, as well as numerous boundaries of various types. Note the starburst of boundaries spiraling around Lubbock. Lubbock was pounded by large hail yesterday and today these storms are producing large hail from golfball to tennis and softball size. Many more broken windshields for the third straight day.
