A complex of severe thunderstorms rumbled off the eastern Wyoming high country into the western Nebraska twilight, its dense convective towers still thrusting skyward at right, its high upper reaches aflame with vivid sunset hue. Even those lower clouds out of direct sunlight played roles in the hit show, with the distant line of shallow cumulus redirecting the glow of the bigger convection beyond. Still more reflected light passed through and around the edges of the scuddy foreground fractocumulus, brightening a rolling Great Plains landscape.
