A massive supercell developed southwest of Lamar, Colorado and intensified bringing hail up to baseball size, several funnels, and a large tornado that appeared long enough to get a view before the rain and hail wrapped it up. The tornado that touched down lifted before it reached US-287 south of Lamar and didn’t do any reported damage. The hail grew to baseball size and damaged car windshields as that core did make it across US-287.
