Storm chase between Perdue and Asquith

A short drive west of Saskatoon, this storm briefly got interesting but soon the low dry lightning convinced me to go home early on this storm...see last storm footage...
tonight:





...and another photo I found from Wednesday night, but I fixed up the brightness and levels...

The outlook map will be updated later today. For now, it looks like some small cells are popping up west of Saskatoon but the biggest risk area will be in the heat of Manitoba.

Intense Lightning: North of Moose Jaw


I am exhausted from another long chase day. Just got back and I had to post at least one shot. Tons of video to go through again which I will post tommorrow. Its all lightning with this storm. No hail and even the rain wasn't that heavy. The best lightning shots of the year if not ever came out of what seemed like a very slow or even stationary storm.
