Storm Chasing in Hot Springs, South Dakota

Wednesday, June 16, was a day of extremely active weather in the Northern Hills area.  My good friend, Kristi, was at a welding class in Hot Springs, and since there was some storm activity building up that direction, I decided to head that way and pick her up after class so we could go see if we could find some lightning or clouds to photograph.  With the Doppler showing two very active storms in our area, we found some great clouds, got hail on my new car, and even ran into Reed Timmer and the Dominator!

It was a great evening of storm chasing and we saw a lot of beautiful country!  These images and many others of South Dakota weather can be viewed and purchased in my Weather Gallery at Thompson Photography.
