Monroe, NE Supercell -- June 2017

For this week's photo of the week, I am going back through the archive of storm chases from the past several years. This photo was taken south of Monroe, NE, of a southeast moving supercell on June 16, 2017, a northwest flow severe weather event which included an EF-2 tornado in Bellevue, NE.  This was a pretty successful chase, with a few photogenic supercells (though I missed brief tornadoes early in the event farther north, as I wasn't able to leave Lincoln as early as I would have wanted). One of my favorite views of the second supercell I saw was this one, looking north at a sculpted updraft past an aquamarine colored bridge in the foreground.
