Tornadic mesovortices in LEWP/bows

[Matthew Fischer]

On August 23, 2007, Here in Chicago area, we had a bow echo come through here. We had an EF-1 tornado touch down in Winfield, IL. From what i rememeber about the storm, the tornado was on the northern part of the bow. Just above the most bowed out part. I remember just standing outside and just watching as the storm came in and just get pommeled by the wind and rain. Was kinda cool really.

Hopes that helps.
