This is the highest twister ever recorded in the continental US (taken at Rockwell Pass in Sequoia National Park, ABOVE 3500 feet). The streaks are hail. Much thanks to Scott for specifically allowing reprint with attribution. The rest of the pics are pretty amazing too. Please do not forward pic without attribution.
You gotta admit, digital photography really rocks. The hail was alley-sized and fell for – get this – an HOUR.
Finally finished my cloak.
