A low-precipitation (LP) supercell, which is a highly-sheared rotating thunderstorm that produces minimal rain, but can generate large hailstones and occasional tornadoes, is characterized by a highly visible updraft tower and is often bell-shaped. This classic example was spotted and followed by Jonah from New Mexico to Texas, with this photograph being taken near Dalhart, Texas, US.
