How's this for a photograph! I was on the way home from picking up dinner - don't tell anyone but it was Colonel Sanders tonight! There had been thunder around all afternoon but it wasn't until I was driving along the harbor that I saw this. It is unusual to see a thunderstorm from the side - usually it is a squall line moving through. The thing that first caught my eye, other than the dark clouds overhead, was the rain core - the medium gray shapes streaming toward the ground. I don't remember seeing that before. Thunderstorms are powerful and dangerous, and so incredible beautiful.
These rain cores are occurring more and more frequently. People in one area get rain, others 2 miles away get none. Same thing with snow. Whatever is happening, I don't like it. Right now, we're having some of the worst weather we've ever had. Unbearable to be outside.
ReplyDeleteGlad you caught this photo just in time - powerful! The storm that surrounded me lasted for 2 1/2 hours - lots of thunder and lightning and intermittent rain. Crazy! It was such a slow moving storm - started north of me then moved south and east - weird! Glad I was inside :-) bsk
