Jonathan Garner and I chased a long-lived supercell across
southern Minnesota on June 29th, 2005. We intercepted this
cell around Worthington, MN and stayed with it until Mankato,
MN. Along with amazing storm structure, we observed two
tornadoes. The first tornado was southwest of Jeffers,
MN. It was a large sized cigar shaped tornado that was
difficult to see with poor backlighting. The next tornado we
observed was a slender tornado just northwest of Madelia, MN.
This tornado was VERY photogenic.
