Storm

[fishboyt]

So our vacuum broke yesterday and we decided to go and get a new one at Bed, bath & beyond. Before we leave, I notice it getting dark out. I go outside and the clouds are really dark and blue. Once we leave I decided to take some pics on the way.


Here is what I saw:













We had to wait in the parking lot because it was raining hard and there was lightning everywhere. The lightning started to get closer and hit a light post that was about 75ft. away! There was just a ball of white and then a crackle! It shorted it out and made sparks fly everywhere! After it all settled down, we went in the store and got the vacuum. We came out to this rainbow and a neat lightning show!

That's what it looked like! Made me scared, but it was awesome!

I remember one time it was sunny outside and there were white fluffy clouds. So it was a normal day. And then this storm front came through. And the clouds were the darkest I had ever seen them. It was weird because the edge between the storm and the sunny area was crisp. Like black next to white. There wasn't alot of gray area. So it looked like a black blanket moving toward us. AND to top it off the edge that was close to us was all twisty and it looked like a black hand.

I can't remember when or where it was but your pics reminded me of that.

That is weird!

I'm pretty sure it was either a funnel cloud or a tornado because there were clouds moving toward us wraping around the whole thing!

Still no rain here...I am going to get some pics of my place, so you all can see how green you are compared to us.

It would be nice to know we are still green.

If you can find them, I'd like to see them.

The storms that came through down here saturday afternoon did some pretty bad damage in some places. I got the first call-out at 5PM and wound up working until 1 AM Sunday morning...3 different elect. services were torn down by trees. Well, actually a lot more were damaged, but those were the only ones willing to pay for call-out inspections to get the power back on ASAP.
