I think. There was a pretty strong wind going all the day. And we've had a thunderstorm an hour ago.

Those are great shots... almost looks like a lenticular cloud forming over a cumulous in the first one; never seen one form over another cloud, only over high terrain. Weird, but I guess it could happen, with strong winds colliding with a strong upwelling of air...

a) We don't have tornadoes in this part of the world.
b) We don't have nuclear explosions either. Except when Dubyah's up to something. Heh. Grin
