Radar image of the 2007 Greensburg torndo

 * Reason:I am nominating this for featured picture because it is extremly encyclopediac and very informative. This radar image illustrates a tornadic thunderstorm, microscale roation in all.
 * Articles this image appears in:Greensburg, Kansas, Tornado emergency, May 2007 Tornado Outbreak
 * Creator:Creator: NOAA. Uploader: User:Pjm34

 * Oppose. Sorry, I don't see whats going on. Where is that rotation? I just see flickering colors. IMHO a schematic illustration or animation (rather than a very abstract looking radar image) would much better describe that phenomenon. --Dschwen 00:02, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
 * The rotation is at the back of the supercell. If you look closly, you can easily see it. Juliancolton (Talk) 00:48, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose per Dschwen. I can sort of see what's meant to be the rotation, but it's all pretty jerky and nothing much that's happening is particularly clear. --jjron (talk) 08:16, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Oppose per above. I wouldn't know what was going on unless someone pointed it out, and even then it isn't the clearest.D-rew (talk) 18:24, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Don't you people look at radar images? ;) (Just kidding). Well, would a still image be better? Juliancolton (Talk) 18:34, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Looking at and understanding are two different things =->. What I would like to see is anything to accent the spin, so tighter crop, and perhaps the next few images in the series (because it seems at the end of this image the spinning is only increasing).D-rew (talk) 18:39, 13 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Oppose The large percentage of this radar, contains nothing but the supercell, then the tornado spins off in only the last 2 frames. Higher resolution imagery surely must exist. Seddon69 (talk) 02:21, 14 February 2008 (UTC)
