1. You may want to download ...
... StormLab or StormPredator for tracking this sucker.

Some people have all the luck!

2. very cool
My wife also gets pretty excited about t-storms. We had one on Saturday that was insufficiently powerful and she was kinda disappointed.

3. Here in Ohio we just had a GREAT one...
Not too much rain, but a vicious lightning session!!! At one point I was a bolt hit a 1000' tv tower, then arc across the sky still connected to the tower!!!

3 strikes within a mile of us in 15 minutes!

HAVE FUN, but stay safe!!!

17. Just before nightfall, I was out in the rain, doing a jig with a machete -
At the other end of the Mississippi, we have the same thing tonight. The river's already jumped its' banks, swamp's really coming alive.

22. Some of us actually use them. Passe les bons temps rouler.
I had to clear an overgrown ditch. So the water could flow.

Try swinging a machete in reeds for a couple of hours, in 85 degree-weather with 99% humidity. When it starts pouring down raining, you'd do a jig as well.

Passe les bons temps rouler.

14. We need a big T-storm in DC to wash away the dirt
You know, the Regugs. I am living in drought land AZ for the moment but our t-storms come next month. Meanwhile, I'll just envy you.

16. Cool.
We've had smaller storms off and on all day.

I was leaving the store around sunset today, and there was a huge towering thunderhead in the distance that was a bright hot pink and flickering lightening, surrounded by a hazy purple sky. It was the most beautiful thing I've ever seen in the sky. I just stood in the parking lot staring until I remembered I had ice cream to get home.

19. Our cable has a channel
that is nothing but local weather and radar 24 hours. I always have it on this time of year to track the storms.
