Shot of sunset, looking west!!

A busted chase out to Huron and back.   I believe some other storm chasers had more success to the south and far west.   I do know the DOW was in the area at the time, but kept mostly to I-90.

I did make a stop by what was left of Manchester, SD.   It was hit by a tornado on June 24, 2003.   No one died, thank God.   Looks to be that only one person rebuilt – a shed and some outbuildings that might have survived.   This was on the very east side of town.   It was definitely a humbling experience as this was the first time I’ve ever visited a place where a tornado has wreaked havoc.

Sometimes the best shots on a chase aren’t of storms.   The sunset made it all worth it.   Met some cows along the way that weren’t too happy to see me wanting to take pictures of them.
