There is no greater beauty. One of the best time lapse shots I've ever seen, and I have seen quite a few.

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Appreciate that man!!!!

[@TheFrozenMonkey]

I love the thunderhead at the start ❤​@@FreddyMcKinney

[@MIKEYPOOHBEARJACKSON]

For some of us who never have or seen a supercell. This video is stunning work of art. This formation of a storm is amazing, first I thought a tornado was gonna spin up from it. But it was just heavy rain. And the view from far away and just nothing but flat land no buildings and trees to block the view. I just stare in awe. Just stunning absolutely beautiful. I need to make a trip to those states.

[@jeffriediazramos6616]

But where is the rain shaft within the supercell?

[@lavamanherovlo684]

The churning, twisting clouds are absolutely mesmerizing, this is why i love watching storms

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Same here! Glad you enjoyed the video!

[@Porchaa]

Poor thing just faded back to nothing!

[@Astro_Ayaz1]

:( true tho lol

[@paulvanhoevelaak619]

Man, what a show!! Beautiful at every stage. You couldn't have been at a better spot!

[@StephenStormLog]

Holy moly that was such a good marriage of storm and music. Loved it.

[@lisetteince]

LP supercell (low precipitation)

[@FreddyMcKinney]

The prettiest type of supercell

[@MarkRosengarten]

What a gorgeous LP storm. Thank you!!!

[@itzrenzo8960]

Low precipitation.? Are low precipitation supercells the only supercells that have these base clouds?

[@MarkRosengarten]

@@itzrenzo8960 Yes, low precip. Nothing else looks like this. Classic supercells have a lot more rain in the core, HP supercells often have the updraft obscured by rain.

[@ExtremwetterDeutschland]

Incredible video! Would love to see such a beautiful LP one day... Greetings from Germany :)

[@celeno31]

Fantastic Freddy

[@Philippine_Navyist16]

Cool lp supercell with those cool laminar striations structures the flanking line so cool

[@weathermanradom]

Super, amazing supercell!

[@el_mal_de_ojo]

Absolutely gorgeous. I would love to one day see such sights with my own eyes.

[@Crowned_King_Of_Zarkavia]

Guys, how do we tell him

[@MorePi]

Nice catch!

[@IstasPumaNevada]

That's an amazing shot! Well done, and thank you for sharing it.

[@theempoweredman7353]

That's a beauty of a supercell. She really wanted an audience.

[@lucasgoodding7857]

Fantastic job

[@soulivan827]

Beautiful

[@christybirling3299]

Dude, this was stunning. It was like watching an elegant ballet.

[@TornadoCrewStormChasers]

That was amazing supercell. NE has some good ones

[@alexbuilds706]

Awesome Freddy. You’re crushing it this year! Happy to see it!

[@Thefrizz02]

One of the best ive seen by FAR!!

[@micmul23]

An amazing LP supercell amazingly photographed. Congratulations 👏.

[@lakehastingsstormchaser7898]

Nice video, Freddy!!! That was awesome!!! You and John take care and hope to see you guys out chasing soon...

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Thanks! Yeah it’s been a really long year man. Not enough storms!!

[@Randomvr9]

I hope this supercell didn’t produce to much extreme weather but it’s kinda crazy how most supercells form on sunny days

[@CuteLesbo69]

Absolutely beautiful

[@roundingitreal1893]

Nate, you said it perfect my man... What an absolutely perfect contribution example for study in the field of meteorology and the pure wonderment of storm formation.

[@OuroborosGD]

poor cell, it just faded away...

[@alphagilgamesh8621]

"Sometimes, the beatifull is the danger."

[@latinogamer6406]

Omg so beautiful supercell formation

[@originaljazzgirl]

Hoooooly canoli! This is amazing. I always wonder why when the storm is going counterclockwise, there seems to be clockwise movement too and I assume that's the inflow bands but it's confusing. This really shows that.

[@sciencoking]

It's almost kinda cute. Great song too!

[@RideAcrossTheRiver]

A whirlpool of air Ne'er gone anywhere

[@requiembkp]

Wow! Amazing LP.

[@benetta8275]

Absolutely epic! Nature's art is simply astounding! It almost looked like a giant foot was slowly setting down! Great work!

[@maxengine6277]

0:22 i wanted new supercell

[@larrylieb1049]

Absolutely Stunning!!!

[@birdlover6842]

Spectacular! The ending looks like a flying saucer.

[@ingridvanmieghem7178]

Is toch raar die wolken

[@GailColeman]

About 3 or 4 years ago, Linn County, Iowa had the sirens blow. They had actually stopped sounding, when my young son and I looked up. And right over our street was this weird "upside down bowl" cloud above us and it was slowly turning. We looked at each other, did the "Do you see what I see?!" bit and headed to the basement. It never did come down but I am sure that was a funnel cloud. I had never seen one except on videos. There really IS a beauty to them, if you also keep a healthy respect for what they can do, which is pretty scary!

[@1.4142]

Is the tiny hail shaft in the back the rfd?

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Maybe? I’ll be honest I really don’t know on this one.

[@FloridaKatLady]

Wow. So beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️. Never seen anything like this before now. And I'll be stuck on these videos for the next month or so. 😆

[@RoniShawn]

That’s freaking RAD!

[@spidermooncake5563]

It’s crazy how those tiny clouds at the beginning formed into this massive cloud

[@1LightningRod]

That's fantastic! Nicely done...

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Thank you!

[@Philippine_Navyist16]

What a twisted work

[@davidholman48]

Glorious! Just glorious! 🏆

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Thank you

[@wrightdobbs]

Lovely timelapse. What were the exposure settings on the images and the interval on images?

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Thank you! For this time lapse I actually just shot video and sped it up. I used a Go Pro Hero 7 with standard 4K settings and a Sony a6400. I’m trying to figure out how to use the interval shooting function for time-lapses myself!

[@matthewmille]

@@FreddyMcKinney I shoot storm and cloud time-lapse videos. I've had some pretty spectacular storms and videos but this is one I'd trade them all for. This is awesome. For storm time-lapse, I will typically take a photo every 2 seconds and create a 24fps video from it. That typically speeds it up to keep it interesting but not so much that's it's over too quickly. The favorite of my storm time-lapse videos is my channel feature video. It's not as removed from the storm as this one. I was right in the thick of it, but I thought it turned out awesome, especially the sunset at the end of the storm.

[@StormChasingPoland]

Wow! Insane LP supercell :OOOO I love how it rotate :D

[@gerardoconnor4278]

Bravo - superb view of our wonderful life at the bottom of an ocean.

[@HarlinsWeatherChanel-ps3ld]

amazing video

[@jamiewinterstern2327]

Any lightning with it? Such a tiny, tight little thing ... nice shot

[@FreddyMcKinney]

I don’t believe so. Maybe some CCs but definitely no CGs.

[@enfolded_light]

Extremely beautiful

[@Joshzilla419]

Looks like a ufo in the sky

[@anonymoususerrr6765]

it created a wall cloud and started to rotate but couldn't produce.

[@IsaacSchluesche31]

Absolutely killer video!!!

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Thanks broski!!

[@djetlager6281]

For me this is the best video that I have seen until today from the birth to the death of this wonderful supercell sincerely you did a very good job congratulations 👏👍✌️

Its amazing how there super powerful thunderstorms just form out in the middle of nowhere

this is gonna make me cry

The colors wow!!❤

[@RedNumber19]

Isn’t the atmosphere just beautiful? The fact a rotating ball of stone with an iron core and a gas can create these masterpieces is just astonishing

[@albowayne1830]

2:13 the tornado is amazing you can see it

Que Lindo Espetáculo da Natureza

[@jonboycat3513]

superb

[@StormsandSaugeye]

LP supercells just don't get enough love. What a friggin fantastic thing to see. I saw exactly one so far in my life and it was in the eastern plains of New Mexico. What a glorious thing it was to see. I didn't even care about the fact that I was originally cruising for tornadoes. Once I saw it I was floored. Made my month.

[@ponywriter6932]

I love them❤😊

[@2990rick]

wow, stunning 👍👍

[@blazeboiii5180]

this is satisfying

[@Lokalaugenschein_]

Whoaha ! Astonishing footage !! 😲🙌🏻 Thank you for uploading. 👍🏻 By the way, what music is playing ? : )

[@fpvangel4495]

A lovely capture Freddy, may i use your video with a link back to you? Keep an eye on that same place to see its rainbow.

[@roberttennyson3263]

Seriously, am I the only human on earth that can see the otherworldly heavenly beings in these storms?

[@josephastier7421]

That cloud moves and evolves as if it were a monstrous living thing.

What was the date of this!? I want to go back on the radar archives and look at this beauty

[@hotsauce8671]

I would've been super scared

[@saskiapanter]

Wow, question, this could've easily become a tornado, but didn't in the end?

[@FreddyMcKinney]

Typically small, low precipitation supercells like this one form in environments that aren’t that conducive for tornadoes. Only in rare circumstances do you get a low precipitation supercell that produces a decent tornado. It’s much more common for classic and high precipitation supercells to produce tornadoes.

[@TheWheatley]

That storm kinda ditched the mesocyclone
