What a fantastic chase on Monday. I hung around the Marana area for a lot of the afternoon, but when a new cluster of storms blew up southwest of Casa Grande, I raced up there hoping they would do something great. And wow they did. I'll post more pictures later, but when I arrived south of Picacho, I time-lapsed a gorgeous storm as it slowly grew in strength and became weakly supercellular. The dusty outflow was intense and I cannot wait to get those time-lapses edited! I raced back ahead of it and by this time the storm was picking up speed and it was tough to stay in front. As I neared Oracle Junction, a new cell blew up and essentially merged with the old one and now a shelf cloud was rapidly forming. A slow truck kept me from racing as far ahead as I wanted, but by the time I got to the San Manuel Airport, the shelf cloud had turned into easily one of the top 3 I've seen here in Arizona. It was stunning, moving fast and behind it, golf ball sized hail was falling in places. Such a blast of a day...so rare here to chase a long-track storm. This guy essentially blew up near Chuichu and died east of San Manuel. Almost 80 miles. Wow.

31.8.16. Very low tide means I can walk to areas of the Thames which are usually well under water. The sun is still setting and the sky is highlighted in the most amazing tones... these splash onto the surface of the water... I think this picture of London is one of my all time favourites. If you have not yet visited London, what are you waiting for? It is the greatest city on earth :)
