I was just viewing some of the photos from 'your perfect chase' topic that's a little old, but i was so impressed with JD's photos of that supercell that i just have to ask - what is a beavertail and what relationship does it have to the supercell?
I just could not get over that shot Jimmy, just blows my mind to see such structure, formation and power of such a thing,

I've posted this in the same topic as I feel it relates to the same thing - but anyway here i go:
Re storms :- Is the inflow from the front or to the side of the storm? If the storm feeds off winds at the lower levels, at what mb level on the sounding chart is usually the norm? Is it better to have slow, same directional wind speeds at lower levels for consistent inflow and will upper level wind speeds 'chop' the cap off or blow out the bouyency of the cell?
I know it may be about shear - but i'm not asking that - I want to know at what level storms feed from!
