Severe Storm Stayed Out of Range
Friday, June 30, 2023
I have a general guideline not to venture further than 60 miles from home when I go solo storm spotting/chasing. At this limit on Saturday, June 24, 2023 was the Highway 92 (Ainsworth, Iowa) exit off US Highway 218 in Washington County. The severe-warned storm cell did not track north as expected from there, and I was forced to photograph it from a distance. The panoramic image above looks southwest from Yucca Avenue, one-tenth mile south of Highway 92, and about 1.8 mile east of Ainsworth. It was captured at 6:25 pm CDT. The most intense part of the storm was located about 37 miles distant, near the town of Birmingham in Van Buren County, Iowa. Nikon D7200 DSLR camera.
