Storms and lightning 8/19/09

today there was a decent chance of severe weather, but unfortunately nothing happened to close. a dying line of storms came thru just north of town around sunset so i went out to my spot north of town and took a few pics. i then went east on 680 across the morman bridge and found exit 1, where i took the exit and went north over the bridge to some gravel road on the other side. there i got a few pics, but unfortunately the lightning wasn't that frequent and it was getting further and further away.


skinny tower trying to survive

again

first of 3 real good lightning shots that i caught

it almost looks like this strike is upside down with the way the 2 strikes come together

cool shot of the clouds as the storm passes

big bolt of lightning several miles to the east

I was watching that same tower from my place. I wish I could have gotten a 360 degree picture of the sky that night above all the houses.
