Thunderstorms

Remember a week or so ago I talked about a weird dream of funnel clouds and stuff? And we sorta tried to analyze it? Well, here’s some pictures from last weeks thunderstorms here in the Edmonton area.

It’s no wonder I dreamt of funnel clouds, huh?

  1. That’s just fucking freaky but in a way cool way

  2. The first two pictures are definitely strange looking, but awe-inspiring. The third is a tornado. Yikes!!!

  3. Wow where the hell were those taken from? I wish Id seen them. It is funny the things that fasinate people.

  6. The pictures were taken just North of the city. Pretty awe-inspiring I thought. :)

  9. I’d be too busy running to even look for my camera to take those pictures.

  11. Wow and Wow; yikes what awesome pictures!!! Hope everyone is okay after that storm.

  12. Yikes! Those clouds look nasty.

  13. Those. Are. Awesome!

    The first two pictures (in case you’re interested) are of the wall clouds that produce tornados and funnel clouds. When you see these at the base of a storm cloud, it’s time to seek shelter. :crazy:

  14. Laura~ I didn’t take them, a friend did, and emailed them to me. :)

    I think they’re strangely beautiful.

    Larissa~ Thanks for the lesson. We’ve had tornados here a couple of times in my life. Not a lot, but often enough that most of us know what sort of dammage they can leave behind. AS much as I’ve seen them before, I never knew the name of that type of cloud, or that it was the start of it. :)
    Thanks.

  15. I’m not sure what scares me more - the pictures or the fact that Larissa can identify them that easily. And calmly. :)

  16. I’m with you—those photos have an awesome kind of beauty!
    Of course, you may also be dreaming of funnel clouds because of the whirlwind of success you’ve been having lately! :)
    You’re not in Kansas anymore, chica!

  17. Sasha–NP!

    Steph–considering the fact that meteorology has been my job for 15 years, it’d be scary if I COULDN’T identify those clouds! :P (And the calm comes from loving storms! *g*)

    by Larissa July 20th, 2005 at 5:25 pm

  18. WOW, those are incredible pictures. I would have been running in the other direction.

  19. :O
    Those are aweseome pictures….

  20. Wow, those pictures are incredible! I don’t know what else to say about them. Amazing.
