An RHI scan was made through the core of a severe thunderstorm located southeast of the CHILL radar. Maximum echo tops were ~16 km AGL (17.4 km / 57 kft MSL). The unfolded radial velocity patterns imply the existence of a sloping updraft that connects low level convergence to strong divergence centered on the echo summit. A positive Zdr column is suggested in the storm inflow area while a hail signature is seen in the echo core at near-ground heights.
