New Mexico Storm Structure - a photo on Flickriver

May 21, 2017
Chased from between Hope, Carlsbad, Roswell & Clovis - New Mexico

WHAT A SIGHT !!!!

This day .... this day was tough for forecast! The Night before, the models looks quite nice right around Alamogordo. The next morning, not the same story! In fact, everything was pretty much gone! So I got up and checked and checked and checked models and was certain that there will be "something!" I even told the Shear WX team that If I was wrong, I would buy their supper haha!
The chase begins, towers form, hit about 30,000 feet echo tops ... and then just die. Another tower, died. Another tower, died. Nothing was breaking the cap!
This is about when I started to hunt the pixels, desperate NOT to buy the guys supper, haha!
Found another storm, died.
Finally around 7:30 pm, we began to see some breathtaking structure and Mammatus Clouds near Elida! Along with that was a beautiful Anvil cloud forming to our North!
We ended up catching up to it and got some great night time lightning shots!
