supercells and tornados in
Hungary. On the 20th of May, the site issued a severe weather
forecast to the eastern
part of the country and organised two storm-chasing team to
catch the
storms by car. They movement was controlled by a coordinator
(Polyánszky "Meteorman" Zoltán) who provided the
information about the position and propagation of the
thunderstorms based on
measurements and forecasts. One team, namely Inflow Band (
Veres "Skyshooter" Viktor,Molnár "Storman" Ákos,Hubay
"Dzsibzon" Tamás) approached a severe
rotating thunderstorm called supercell and they observed as
the
rotating funnel cloud reached the ground: a tornado formed.
