Had an impromptu chase come to me tonight in Locust Grove, GA. I was coaching my son's baseball game when we stopped for lightning. I could see the storm off in the distance to my NW. The game was called and the chase was on with only my iPhone as my camera and radar.
Took a few pictures of the storm from the ball park then jumped in the truck with my wife and son. We stayed in front of the storm for about 20 minutes. The whole time the cell did not have any rotation but had great inflow. The cell was moving S with a nice shelf cloud out in front. The inflow appeared to enter the base on the north side which would place it on the backside. Kind of strange. Did see some scud being drawn upward most of the entire time I was on the storm.
edit: all the pics can be seen on my FB page. http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=3608121&op=8&o=global&view=global&subj=4909362&id=4909362#/album.php?aid=2015575&id=1202536036
