Supercell thunderstorm, Kansas, USA C017 / 8422
Supercell thunderstorm forming over Sanford, Kansas, USA, at twilight. A supercell thunderstorm is a severe long-lived storm within which the wind speed and direction changes with height. This produces a strong rotating updraft of warm air, known as a mesocyclone, and a separate downdraft of cold air. Tornadoes may form in the mesocyclone, in which case the storm is classified as a tornadic supercell thunderstorm. The storms also produce torrential rain and hail. Photographed on 7 May 2013

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the awe-inspiring power of nature as a supercell thunderstorm takes shape over Sanford, Kansas, USA. As twilight descends upon the rural landscape, an extreme storm begins to unfold in the sky above. The formation of a supercell thunderstorm is no ordinary occurrence; it is a severe and long-lasting weather phenomenon characterized by rapidly changing wind speeds and directions at different altitudes. Within this menacing cloud formation lies a mesocyclone, a rotating updraft of warm air that fuels the intensity of the storm. Simultaneously, cold air rushes downward in a separate downdraft, creating an atmospheric battle between opposing forces. Such conditions can give birth to tornadoes within the mesocyclone's rotation, classifying this particular storm as a tornadic supercell thunderstorm. As if its potential for tornadoes wasn't enough, this tempestuous system also unleashes torrential rain and hail upon the land below. It serves as a reminder of nature's raw power and its ability to command respect from all who witness its might. Photographed on May 7th, 2013 by Roger Hill from Science Photo Library, this image transports us back to that fateful evening when Mother Nature unleashed her fury upon Kansas. It stands as both an extraordinary meteorological event frozen in time and an enduring testament to our ongoing fascination with extreme weather phenomena in the 21st century.
