Storm chasers by county

A large cumulonimbus has developed a few kilometers from the center of the city of Salerno

The Roanne storm cell approached my position. Some cows made a graceful pose for the picture.

Thunderstorm with a nice shelf cloud in southern Germany.

Anvils of cold air mass thunderstorms at setting sun

After I watched another supercell during that evening, a new storm arrived with a trajectory about ten kilometers further north. So I took the direction of Digoin.

Always fun trying to take panoramic photos in 40+mph winds

Lightning storm in Savelletri / Selva di Fasano, Brindisi in southern Italy

This was the beginnings of the Imperial Mothership supercell. Right from the word ‘go’ it was extremely photogenic

This storm over the North Adriatic intensified rapidly and very soon took the form of a mothership structure

On the Mont Bouquet I watched the evacuation of a strong and isolated storm.

This is one frame of beautiful bolts & probably one of the best lightning shots I’ve ever taken

“The lonely one”

Some nice deep convection with positive lightning which was a bit obscured but i love the combination

Seems like the sky is taking the picture over me

A storm system in the south of France drains off to the Riviera. From the Calanques the sky becomes clear, with the illuminated cumulonimbus far away.

An isolated thunderstorm has formed after a very hot and dry afternoon near the Cevennes mountains.

Positive lightning jumps from the top of the explosive updraft over the Trieste gulf

This amazing, ground-scraping, tornado-warned monster of a supercell was coming straight for us at this point

The devastating Pentecost storm that swept over North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany in 2014. The storm was described as one of the most violent in decades by the German weather service.

Beautiful shelf cloud from the dominant outflow supercell we chased in Croatia

Very nice structure during the thunderstorm in Bavaria.

Stunning lightning from Oklahoma

Isolated cell behind the island of Brijuni on western coast of Istria

It is difficult to find the right words for what we were allowed to experience that day in Kansas. In the end it was “just” a tornado, a maximum of pure vertical vorticity materialized in a condensed cloud funnel. For us it was much more – it was Mother Nature in her perfect form, an exclusive moment, pure fascination and the highlight of our tour so far.
