I think the third one is simply terrifying. It is so low, so dark, so agressive. Shocked

4 would be worse i believe. I can see what appears to be 2 tornados about to touchdown, certainly 1 which is rather close.
Some nice photos.

Humbling, isn't it? Funny that most people think of the sky as being, well, nothing- some kind of void.

Guys, these are NOT pictures from Hurricane katrina. They are images taken by storm chaser/ photographer Mike Hollingsead in Kansas in 2004. The pictures can be found on his site: www.extremeinstability.com ; sorry to spoil the party, just spreading the word!

Yep, that's our lovely mid-west in the US. Right smack dab in the middle of tornado alley. Those are some severely po'ed clouds to say the least. This is why I live on the east coast.  Grin
