Yesterday, we chased a few storms in the Rocky Mountains. We almost saw a tornado drop, but the storm just couldn't do it. Soon after that, we ventured into an area with golf-ball sized hailstones covering the ground, all with snow-covered mountains within sight. Very beautiful.
The road networks were bad, so we couldn't chase the way we'd normally want to. In other words, we were handcuffed. We ended up punching a hail core to try to see a tornado, but we didn't see any. Ironically, we started the day at the Billings airport, from which we would have had a great view of a tornado.
But the money shot included here, of the hail on the ground with the snow-covered mountains in the background, was a great consolation prize.
