Very nice dramatic skies.

Well, the climate has changed already, so we will see more of this weather where it was unusual to see it, as times goes by.

Very nice and dramatic image… As for tornadoes, a few small or medium ones already hit France, Italy and Switzerland. While not as big as those from tornado alley, they can do pretty serious damage.

I heard. Wife was NOT happy. Being Belgian she is not use to intense thunderstorms. I grew up in the south (North Carolina) where we welcomed them to break the heat. We were eating dinner outside when this monster rolled through. Needless to say I had to abandon her to capture this!

I see, either face your wife's fury or that storm… tough choice!  :D

I hope she likes your photo?

Really nice structure in both the sky and the land.
