  • Thunderstorm time lapse and spectacular phenomenon with facts and information of where to witness these fascinating sights. Upward lightning, mammatus, sprites, gustnadoes and of course, tornadoes.

    QLCS INFORMATION:
    A Quasi-Linear Convective System (QLCS), also known as a squall line can harbor strong straight-line winds, heavy precipitation, hail, A LOTTA lightning and possibly tornadoes… For me, squall lines often provide spectacular storm scenery and other weird phenomenon. This video highlights an array of fascinating weather along with storm relative locations of where you’re most likely to witness these beautiful sights.
    SHELF CLOUDS:
    Shelf clouds often form over the leading edge of linear thunderstorm outflow. Being overtaken by a shelf cloud can seem like being swallowed by a colossal whale. Inside the “Whale’s Mouth,” clouds of eerie turbulence loom overhead.
    QLCS TORNADOES
    Squall lines sometimes stretch 100s of miles. This storm mode generally is not prolific at producing tornadoes as strong, cold outflow winds undercut the updraft and surge ahead of the storm as a gust front. Along the gust front is a good place to look for dust lofting eddies called gustnadoes. Transient tornadoes can suddenly develop in enhanced cyclonic convergence anywhere the QLCS is able to take in inflow near the surface. Sometimes in line kinks, embedded supercells can develop and may produce stronger rain wrapped tornadoes. Another place to look for tornadoes is in new cellular development at the tail end of the line were warm moist inflow is unimpeded by storm outflow.
    QLCS LIGHTNING
    The frequent lightning can provide opportunities for beautiful photography and video. Positioning behind the squall often provides a clear view of mammatus clouds, especially around sunset.
    In the increasing Darkness, more and more lightning activity is revealed. In the trailing stratiform region of a QLCS is an excellent place to catch the most erratic of lightning discharges. The most prized visuals of these flashes to me is ground-to-cloud lightning or upward-moving lightning.
    QLCS SPRITES and JETS
    From tens of miles away, look closely for dim, red spurts of light above the QLCS. These strange electrical discharges are called Sprites. Light sensitive cameras really make sprites pop against the backdrop of stars on a dark night. To see more sprites, check out Paul Smith's youtube channel...

    I think my favorite kind of thunderstorm is the ones in the fall. When they drastically change the temperature- signaling of the colder days to follow. I'll be standing on my deck watching it across the creek- a gust of wind hits me and it chills me to the bone, like a sign to say farewell to summer, and that winter is coming ;).

    I love watching your videos, as opposed to other known "stormchasers". You educate in a way a child like me (I'm 63...) can understand, you are calm and not shouting & over-animated and you are actually slowly reducing my utter terror of tornadoes. I "watched trees fly" when I was 4 years old in central Ohio and those images will be with me forever. Then in my very early 20s I moved to SE Wyoming. I never minded the STRONG winds and extreme cold there, but watching tornadoes form VERY close by several times every summer was just too much. I am now in NW Wyoming and live in a perfect spot, like in a little cove of mountains at the west edge of a big basin. Go any direction 2 or 3 miles and you may find yourself in, at best, a supercell. But in 33 years I have lived here, have only been 2 ropey twisters -which were 3-5 miles out of town. Thank you for your great meteorological education!!

    • @nickdavis965
      @nickdavis965 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      One questions, are tornadoes associated with squall lines from supercells. You did mention some can form from more cyclonic activity then some with embedded supercells. Does that mean the prior is not associated with a supercell?

    • @PecosHank
      @PecosHank  5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Thanks Nick. You can get tornadoes is squall lines from embedded supercells and also from something called mesovortices. We generally call those QLCS tornadoes. @@nickdavis965

      I agree, Hanks footage and experience needs to actually be immortalized on the big screen, the footage is absolutely jaw dropping, the music composition is his own, I have discovered, and the perfection of it, plus the soothing tone of his voice, creates a viewing experience unlike anything I have ever seen. This is a work of art and I think millions of people would want to view, then buy and own, a Pecos Hank Storm Footage Cinematic Production. I am not sure why no major production heads have leapt at the opportunity to make it happen yet.
