Wall Cloud Mimickers

Monday, May 26, 2014




What at first glance might have appeared to some as a tornadic wall cloud on Tuesday, May 20, 2014 was in reality just low-hanging scud clouds. This storm cell, although severe enough to drop up to quarter size hail, was not a rotator. The top image looks northwest at 7:20 PM CDT from C Avenue just south of County Home Road and about 1.5 miles east of Robins, Iowa. The bottom image looks west from St. Peters Road at 7:36 PM, about .2-mile north of Midway Road and about 2.5 miles north of Robins. Temperature was 79 degrees and dew point 63 degrees for both images.
