CONCLUSIONS Low precipitations supercell system, generated in an environment of high instability, and clockwise turning hodograph with low wind speeds at the lower levels and strong, and nearly unidirectional wind shear at heights from 6 to 12 km. Split storm structure, more clear at upper levels Left moving cell disspated by the entrainment of cold air, generated in the central downdraft at low and middle levels, conditioned by the wind profile.
