Sorry about the gaps, the LBB radar site refused to update for a while that evening.

If anyone is interested in keeping these, save them to your computer now because they take up a lot of webspace and I can't leave them up forever.
 
very nice loops there - that Plainview cell was superb on radar shame I was too many miles away in NE!

Holy crap! That Audubon, IA storm is a thing of beauty.

I'd say the best supercell radar signature of the year, so far. 8) I was very surprised it didn't put down a long tracked strong/violent tornado. Judging from the reports from chasers in the area http://www.stormtrack.org/forum/viewtopic....800fa826b3f8927 LCLs were just too high. Goes to show you, reflectivity can be deceiving.
 
Cool loop Andy :wink: Strong and static convergence in the zones of Plainview: supercells grow up but the convergence remains the same and in the same place: this is a tipical tornadic situation!
