June 3rd Culpeper to Fredericksburg wall cloud

Whew! Today was so eventful that it's hard to convey what all happened. I was able to get away and head out early to the Culpeper vicinity, arriving there about 1500 as individual cells were beginning to swell. After some deliberation I took on the southern cells since the northern ones looked like they were bound for suburbia and heavy traffic. After one U-turn I finally made my way over to Rte 15 south of Culpeper where I saw the beginnings of a wall cloud underneath a cell that was skirting east/northeastward along the Blue Ridge:
Deciding to follow this storm proved to be a wise and productive decision. As it continued on its path I moved to a position just east of Culpeper and a witnessed a wall cloud over the town, which I promptly reported to NWS Sterling. As the rain neared I retreated further eastward to a favorite viewing spot near Stevensburg and watched as the feature drew in scud from the rainshaft and began wrapping up into this:

Again, I dutifully dialed NWS Sterling and called in another wall cloud report, for which the met on the other end thanked me and then added that if I saw any hail to call back in. Guess they weren't interested in rotating features today! When this feature fell apart I continued east on Route 3 and stopped a couple of miles further down to watch as the storm regathered itself:
(Couldn't tell if that was a funnel or just scud, so I didn't call this one in...no hail!!)
As this system churned eastward I kept abreast or just ahead of it through Lignum and then Wilderness, finally stopping again off Old Plank Road about 4 miles west of I-95 and saw this:
At this point my trusty internet connection informed me that the storm had a radar-indicated TVS (tornado vortex signature) so I determined to keep a very close eye on it despite the miserable afternoon traffic. I finally made it across I-95 to Route 1, where I parked just north of Four Mile Fork and watched as the feature crawled toward me, gathering strength and showing inflow bands. When it finally got too close I headed east on Mine Road after snapping this over my shoulder (I was stopped at a traffic signal!):
At this point the road system (or lack thereof) and the heavy traffic conspired to dump me into the core of the storm which had a signicant hail signature. I drove through intermittent hail up to the size of quarters (no dents that I have found yet) and made it home in time to eat a quick pizza dinner and then head back out to watch a second line pound through our vicinity as darkness fell. So many photos and videos yet to look at...more to come!
