Incredible view south of Jamestown, ND
Southern development in Stutsman county looking East and slightly North
A possible second funnel as RFD cuts in
A wall cloud quickly develops looking East
and persists for several minutes with a nice tail cloud
A new wall cloud develops and maintains with quick rotation for several minutes
We move south and east towards Gackle, ND and notice dust kicked up by RFD to our SE
Another wall cloud develops and maintains with incredible glowing blue colors behind just to our NE
wall cloud persists
Storm moves East as this area is undercut
and a new action area develops to the East
We abort the chase and move North towards Jamestown to see hail and vibrant rainbow to our East
Gorgeous double rainbow develops
In Jamestown we watch the sunset before a 10pm dinner
What a great chase... 3 supercells and several wall clouds
