Staring down into the Core

by Michiel Baatsen

Every storm chaser ends up having to choose at some point: run or hide? As a powerful supercell storm was approaching, the skies turned ominously green and we decided to duck. Moments later, the storm would hit us with severe winds, large hail and a low rotating wall cloud. Watching such cloud structures approaching, one can only be in awe of Mother Nature.
