Sunset Supercell

This is a picture of full-blown supercell thunderstorm taken in the American Midwest. These types of storms are known to be relatively common during the springtime in this region and are some of the most dangerous since they have the ability to produce tornadoes. The storm’s almost creamy swirls almost look like the world’s most powerful and dangerous ice cream cone, and if it manages to touch down to earth, it could create a tornado destroying everything in its path. The lone lightning bolt and light from the sunset in the middle of the background make it hard to fathom just how dangerous this storm is. Keep going to see what rainfall looks like from an airplane!
