I know this is not a severe weather event but the lightning negates a worthy post.
After leaving Lusk, Wyoming, we went for a little drive through the Black Hills. A few high based storms developed near and over the Black Hills, extreme SW South Dakota. More of an incentive to drive through. I musy say - very picturesque not the storms of course. So we left this region to check out the Devils Tower. An explosive updraft developed to our east - great timelapse potential.
Finally a great visit to the Devil's Tower, extreme NE Wyoming with some impressive picture opportunities including an American Indian singing (worshiping) at the base. Good to see technolgy spreading through with us catching up with the same American Indian on a cell phone!
Our next destination was Sheridan Wyoming - well who said there was a time table. We set up for some high based very weak storm lightning. But as evening approached, so did the lightning. It went crazy - well not in frequency but character. Say no more!
We almost found ourselves without accommodation but the magic from Macca did it once again!
Explosive updraft north east of Sundance
Devil's Tower - very impressive
American Indian in his ritual
The lightning show
