Very low contrast and probably rain wrapped circulation here on 64 north of St. Mary's

The circulation looked great for awhile and a lot of people from the area and the local ambulance service came out to spot this storm.

The lens on the Olympus SP350 really sucks, so it wouldn't focus well in the low contrast situation. It was hard to tell but I thought I was seeing either a really low wall cloud or a funnel cloud at times in the area north of St. Mary's Kansas on KS 63.

There were awesome vistas from the hilltops north of St. Mary's, but the circulation started to go away. I decided to bug out before the gust front and probably hail came.

06/05/2008  19:23:26

All the circulation started washing out as the south part of the line north of St. Mary's Kansas started falling apart.
