My Life On The River


 Storm Clouds / Thunder & Lighting River dance
Back to Full Blog  

River Dance / Thunder & Lighting



Two days ago we had this really awesome storm, and I had to get pictures.




Heres a picture of a small funnel forming.



You can see rotation at the bottom right of this picture.



Small funnel cloud here.



My town which is 3 or 4 miles away is blowing the tornado sirens now, and I am just standing out in my yard filming these awesome clouds thinking my storm shelter is only a few feet away if I need it.
This last picture shows a lot of rotation.



No damage was done anywhere by this storm. It was great entertainment
for me!

Dixie,
Those are some really poignant pictures! Mother Nature at what she does best, the wonders of a storm. I had just finished doing a new post, and seen your blog pop up and decided to stop by. Glad I did. Have a nice Sunday

Thanks Crone, I am happy you enjoyed the storm pictures. I love watching storms. Nature, even in its fury is awesome to see. I went to check out your new post but could not see it.

Great pictures! I love storms, especially when their bark is much louder than their bite.

Glad there was no damage

hey Dixie it is amazing how much beauty there is in a storm and here is a thought. we build dams use sand bags build walls to hold back the forces of water but God can contain great amounts of water in a cloud over our heads in the sky . WOW what a great God we have i hope your day is going good.

Hi Chandabear, Thanks for visiting my blog! So your like me...Love to watch them as long as they are not harming anything. I have a thing about storms. I sometimes think I would like to be a storm chaser but, I would hate the driving around trying to find one!
I hope you stop back again..... Have a great Sunday. Dixie
