Lizzy. There were numerous great shots of the recent tornadoes in this area sent in to the local television stations.
BTW, have you ever seen the documentary of the storm chasers? I saw it on PBS, (don't tell the conservatives that I watch PBS, please), and it was quite exciting. (Not to be confused with that sad movie with Helen Hunt)
Anyway, tornadoes have to be the most photogenic of all weather events.

For the past 4 days, I haven't done any chasing at all, it's been the other way around. I think the weather guessers have been too busy to mention it, but I believe this is probably the most numerically significant outbreak in history, not to mention the least photogenic one from where I'm at, and I'm about ready for a break.

It looks like we're now seeing high winds on the back side of the latest system, which might mean a couple days off, and I don't care if i see another storm for a long long time....at least till Monday afternoon, anyway.

Deitrich captures the vibrant colors..." I see a snapping turtles face in the lite shaded clouds! Amazing photos Lizs thanks for the heads up. The attached article is great too. Do you contribute to MSN News?

I missed the most recent ones in OK City, passed thru about 45 minutes before I heard the announcers yelling about it being along I 44.

I think Wal-Mart sells it by the gallon.

Whitewashing Jeffers
Lizs, I 'would' whitewash him. If only he'd stand still and stop squirming. ;-)
