- Tug-of-war between opposing winds under a severe storm. A rotating wall cloud threatens a remote farm. Winds near the ground converge from all sides, then rise to condense as a huge, low cloud under a supercell thunderstorm. The storm’s mesocyclone adds rotation which shapes clouds into a circular stack. The ragged base is the result of uneven condensation in the zone where warm, drier air mixes with cooler, moist air from opposite sides of the storm system.
