Indystorm Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 You have HP and LP supercells. Supercells by definition rotate, but not all form wall clouds or tornadoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKStormFan Posted May 8, 2015 Share Posted May 8, 2015 Thanks guys, that makes sense. I get the idea behind the original post now. Very slowly learning...it's going to take me a while as I'm not qualified/trained even remotely in the science behind the weather...(aside from the very basics) but I'm more of a 'see it when it's in action' kind of enthusiast. Edit - Jim, I think we spoke a couple of weeks ago with regards to some help via a PM. I will remind myself to follow up on that once this weekend is over! Thanks.
