- Flanking line of a severe storm and developing MCS
- W012523Z
- An example of a flanking line on the southwest end of a severe storm and developing MCS. Rain below the mature part of the storm at left gives way to a dark rain-free base with irregular towers above it. The boundary is driven forward by outflow, forcing up premature convective clouds with little structure farther from the rain. Mesoscale downdrafts have cleared the sky behind the wind shift.
