Holy smokes–that looks exactly what hit here about 2:00. I was going to write about it!
And a heinous storm it was when it hit my neighborhood.
Ain’t mother nature awesome? We had a few trees that looked like that and the sirens went off. Didn’t turn out to be much of a storm. Then again, my perception might be off. After watching hundred mile an hour straight line winds blow over trees earlier this summer, a measly 50 plus doesn’t seem so bad.
Hey Kev, your tree is crooked.
Yeah, I was driving in that. Add a little lightning and thunder directly overhead and it was a wee bit intense. *shudder* When the sky turned green I was just waiting for the funnel cloud to come down.
Weirdest thing? Ten minutes later I was driving in clear skies and sunshine (where the storm had already passed).
