Nice storm, thanks for sharing!

[@ozthunder]

and thank you for watching

[@MadWXChasing]

Absolutely incredible! Easily one of the craziest thunderstorms I have ever seen! Nice video!

[@jepthaross-xm7ut]

man i love thunderstorms and lightning

[@ozthunder]

Good to hear ! and thanks for taking time to comment

[@peachdaisyandrosalina9666]

Good for you, they only make me feel uncomfortable.

[@ozthunder]

@@peachdaisyandrosalina9666 Thanks, Iove some nice close lightning

[@ozthunder]

I saw at least 4 other chase crews, but none in a position where you could just stroll up and have a chat. There was a small station wagon with what looked like Go pros on the roof at the location on the start of this clip.

[@StormChaserMaci.]

6:28 that is some very suspicious storm behavior. Clear rotation. I'm an advanced SKYWARN storm chaser in Texas. I've seen that before tornadoes strike.

[@ozthunder]

Thanks Mate, another chase crew said they saw a funnel, appreciate you taking time to watch

[@paytonsamuels2594]

2:56 What kind of lightning was that

[@thatelephant]

A *VERY* close one ⚡

[@scholastica1658]

Wow look at the sky.. the clouds turn it dark and scary black. With Thunder..... thanks for this video.its beau

Beautiful supercell. Awesome shelf cloud.

[@michaeljagger7673]

How long did it last for?

[@ozthunder]

Around 2 hours in the Oakey area. It became somewhat outflow dominant around sunset, but still was able to chase it for another 2 hours eastward to my Motel for the night, where lightning was still going off.

[@AlldatJazz-rw9wy]

We storms like that in Texas, especially with all the open space. I've been caught in a downburst before, man that is a crazy experience.

[@ozthunder]

Much nastier storms in Texas, I have been there a couple of times

[@ExtremeSpinner99]

Very nice thunderstorm, great video !

[@lightningchaser111]

great footage ozthunder. I was holidaying on the gold coast over that weekend but had no car and only took limited camera gear. So close but so far :(

[@pingtang666]

Amazing video Michael!!!! One of your very best :)

[@jaggass]

The green sky in the back is beautiful but scary. I can't imagine how much damage that storm caused.

[@ozthunder]

Mostly hail damage, thanks for watching

[@alissaburge6375]

It is scary outside with the storms in Darling Downs, Australia 🇦🇺

[@ozthunder]

It is one of the best places in Australia for severe storms and areas like Cecil plains look just like western Kansas. The flatness and lack of trees allows the sky to dominate the landscape.

[@nsxisfire]

I miss storms like this.

[@ozthunder]

So do I, the constant swings from El Nino to La Nina we have seen over last few years has not helped.

[@ume350]

great footage,full of energy this system,did you bump into Andy & Cam from South Brisbane Storms

[@Pranshu_Z]

So beautiful and darkest cumulonimbus cloud!

[@ozthunder]

Thanks for taking to time to comment !

[@joshuamoore2363]

It’s getting dark at big storm.

[@ozthunder]

Thanks Joshua ! yes it was near sunset, but looked a lot later !

[@MrMagnat007]

Epic CG at 0:55sec Nicely recorded... Please tell me you were in the 4x4 lol

[@jaggass]

It was like the sky had fallen.

[@ozthunder]

Thanks for watching !

[@user_user28]

6:28 there is tornado?

[@ozthunder]

I did not see one, but some other chasers just a little further south said they did.

[@Strawhataviation]

when you say HP storm, do you mean high pressure?

[@ozthunder]

HP - High Precipitation Supercell, LP = Low precipitation Supercell, and the one in between is called a Classic Supercell

[@Strawhataviation]

@@ozthunder oh right ok, thx for letting me know! I have recently just gotten into meteorology and storms so this helps.

[@mewtoo007]

Part of those thunderclouds are green. Tornados.

[@ozthunder]

Thanks ! yes it was s severe storm, another chase crew said they saw a funnel cloud, but I did not

[@joyzuegn317]

Hi there Mick, i posted a few questions on part 1, was wondering if you could post back? Again insane video mate, and your weather knowledge is super.

[@KingpinofLV]

hi, last night a few people vvvvvvvv traffic

[@KingpinofLV]

and here it is..

[@sunnyday9410]

I live in pennsylvania.the lightning we have is nothing compared to this.that is scary!

[@ozthunder]

Thanks for your comments. if i lived Pennsylvania I would be doing miles every spring to the mid west where you will see lightning like this and more !

[@jaggass]

When a supercell is developing is there always a blue sky behind it or can it be cloudy too?

[@ozthunder]

Both, but good point as a supercell can start to dominate the environment around it and kill off nearby storms, thus becoming rather isolated

[@jaggass]

Here in the UK when we have a thunderstorm it just clouds over and rains. Ive seen one or 2 shelf clouds in the UK and a small wall cloud but not a supercell or tornado yet as most go unreported or very weak. Its my favorite type of weather.

[@Le_epic_eclipse]

Great storm I love it

[@ozthunder]

Thanks, appreciated

[@Le_epic_eclipse]

There was tornado?

[@ozthunder]

Some other chasers mention seeing a small one, I did not

[@daquanbenson549]

I really wanna chase storms its actually on my bucket list but its also an interest of mine as a career

[@ozthunder]

A great past time, but if you want to do it at another level study meteorology. If still in high school maximize Math and physics. Good luck.

[@andrzejblonski]

Wow! Beautiful storm :)

[@jaggass]

How long did this storm last for from start to finish?

[@ozthunder]

Probably the second longest I have chased in Australia, was on it for 4-5 hours, but the latter part was weaker

[@jamessaunders1578]

Man that look crazy . Grate video

[@ozthunder]

[@sg3596]

Just a typical Qld summer storm. love em

[@barbaralane9146]

INDEED HE SURE WAS!!!

[@bradroesler7072]

What a wicked storm this was! How long did this go for?

[@ozthunder]

The actual supercell went fro 3-4 hours, spread out into a convective complex that lasted to after midnight as it moved towards coast (150kms away)

[@dinobay9597]

​@@ozthunder that is lot water of 3 to 4hours

[@ozthunder]

@@dinobay9597 thanks mate, it was the lightning rate that had me amazed

[@dinobay9597]

@@ozthunder i thought that lightning 🌩️ thunderstorm was sever in tropical equator why more lightning there in subtropical area

[@thevigilant266]

OH MY LORD!! I just want to witness a storm like this before I die, that's my wish! What is the best place in the world to find storms like these?

[@ozthunder]

if you want a storm like that you best bet in USA Mid West in May. Here in Australia while we do get occasional good ones but there is too much down time between events.

[@thevigilant266]

@@ozthunder Noted! Thanks mate!

[@josephlindquist506]

Try Mobile, Alabama in August. Clouds that build to 60K feet and thunder that rips doors off their hinges (for real).

[@ozthunder]

Around 20mins after sunset. Thanks for watching

[@bennuballbags2]

My god, so many positive strokes

[@ozthunder]

Thanks Ben for watching !

[@jaggass]

How does a thunderstorm work opposed to a supercell?

[@ozthunder]

Probablt easier to explain a supercell - has a persistent single rotating updraft. Other thunderstorms fall into several categories, but the most common is just a multicell. Thunderstorms need vertical cloud growth

[@seantrainandstormvids]

Then there was Emerald October 2018 with a monster HP tornic supercell and one that also came close to dropping a funnel and with huge hail stones

[@dominiquepilon5764]

That would make me go in anxiety attack thunderstorms are beautiful but dangerous too
