Not one of mine admittedly, but this is just incredible, after loving seeing all those Gust Fronts and Anvil pictures i thought I would see wether you have some great Timelapse of LP Or Classic Supercell Structure

That is an awesome time lapse, but IMO this one tops it, make sure to watch to the end:

Actually I have been thinking that I should do some time lapse stuff especially after Hays in May.

Paul very nice. I like the coloration and the movement of the storm in video. Hope to see more.

yeah, that was tight chad...

but it leads me to a question...how do you take such timelapse?

apparently he had that camera running for well over 6 hours...can you link up the camera directly to a computer?

surely there are no 6+ hour tapes out there...

I think they were probably using some type of digital slr. I can use my computer to control my rebel xt and I bet most if not all of those type of cameras can do that. By using a computer and having the camera on a ac adapter you can have as long of a time lapse as your hard drive can hold. I haven't had a chance to do a good storm time lapse doing this but I did do a stars and clouds time lapse (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PoD3ORKypZI) thats on youtube. You would have to a very expensive video camera to get the same results.

I messed around trying to do a time lapse with Pinnacle, and had to fast forward the video, then used Pinnacle's 4x, so I think it's around 40x. Video of the first tornado-warned supercell we were on, about 8 miles west of Pratt KS on 5/5/07.

I use Adobe Premiere which let's you stretch or shrink the time a scene takes. Much easier to hit your marks. Here's a couple of example I've got up on youtube:

The first is actually my entry at the 2005 Convention in Denver which was botched up.

Mike H also has some great time lapse footage in his TaintedLove short. Worth checking out if you haven't seen it.

I had the opp. to do a time lapse of a fairly strong cold front passage...it didnt have a lot of clouds and no rain so it was perfect from a photography standpoint.

Here's a video timelapse of a great lightening storm, as a dying supercell hits the coastal moisture and reignites.
