Wonder no more! I got this awesome Screenshot of a Funnel Cloud while E-Storm Chasing today. I had the screen in Split Mode, so I could get it in both Base Reflectivity, and Relative Velocity Radar Images at once.

Ummmm.......Looks more like a blizzard, at least on my screen. Any body else not seeing a funnel cloud??
 
It's the dark spot on the Velocity Radar. Right above the Funnel Icon.

Yeah, it's the Hook Echo on the Base Reflectivty Radar, and the dark spot on the Relative Velocity Radar. Both Radar pictures are of the exact same place, and the same time.

Hook echo is a giveaway. Nice pictures.
 
For some reason, I am not getting an image on your original post at all. :frown3:
