Photos from the Severe Thunderstorms Near Scottsbluff and Lusk on May 28th

Here are some images of the severe weather that affected Scotts Bluff County last Sunday, May 28th. As can be seen the main threat was damaging wind, which caused quite a dust storm ahead of the main thunderstorm. Western Nebraska Regional Airport near Scottsbluff recorded a wind gust of 64 mph from the storm. Thanks to Brian Thalken for snapping these pictures.





Here are two pictures submitted by Michelle Schein of the aftermath of a hail storm near Lusk, Wyoming, where hail up to one inch in diameter fell.
