Taken by Storm
Sometimes we’ll go an entire spring season without any storms to speak of. This is not one of those years; between where we stopped for this shot and our house (80 miles) we:
- saw this storm
- skirted a storm that had a tornado
- pulled off the road to let storm ahead of us move out of the way
- saw power poles just a block from our house leaning over from wind
- made it home just minutes before yet another storm hit
It was one of very few times in my life when the weather has frightened me.

An angry sky

Yes – it was VERY angry. And it just got worse, too.

Yikes. That’s scary stuff. Every once in a while we get a tornado or strong inline wind shear but that sky is ominous enough to hide in the cellar.

Matter of fact, I’d expect Vigo to emanate from those clouds.

That was a treacherous storm, for sure, and we probably should have looked for a cellar – but it’s all ranch land so no cellars anywhere…

Yikes, indeed.
