Storm pictures

[wfooshee]

In the spirit of John's sharing of mattb's panoramic photo on the FB page, here are a couple of pics I took this evening.

Typical of this time of year, moist air comes in from the Gulf and allo the water falls out of the sky as soon as it gets over land. big clouds, heavy rain over very small areas. When they say, "Scattered showers, some locally heavy," this is what they mean. Note the clear blue sky visible higher up!


This was the view when I turned 180 degrees, cloud forming as it gets over the warmer land. I'm less than half a mile from the Gulf where I'm standing.

EDIT: Wow! Picasaweb took this picture and threw up on it! This is NOTHING like the image I uploaded to Picasaweb! Let me attach the file from my PC and see what happens:



Yeah, Google made some decisions that weren't mine in that image, didn't they? The second one is the same file I uploaded to them!

Feel free to post your own storm pics. I looked for a thread of such but didn't find one. Maybe this can be an ongoing project.
