2011-07-17 REPORTS: ND

[Bill Doms]

Not too often you can leave an hour after a tornadic sup goes up early enough in the day where you can drive 3 hours to intercept, chase it for a couple of hours until it dies, then go after 2 more warned sups, dodge an EF3, and still be on the road home before the sun hits the horizon.

FULL CHASE ACCOUNT HERE

Near Dickey, ND. This would go on to produce the Berlin, ND EF3.

Undercut tornado warned cell northwest of Ellendale, ND.

Had a great chase in North Dakota on Sunday!

I was so busy setting up this shot over the water, I didn't even notice the tornado forming!

Had a gorgeous sunset with brilliant oranges and even reds to almost purple later!

The light show on the way home was amazing!
