backyard 020.jpg

The first picture was taken with whacky settings because I was all set up for taking pictures of lightning... My motto is "get the first shot in - it's better to have a poor picture than none at all." You can see that I was wise, as I think this was the best of the bunch.

actually it was a few miles away, not right over the trees like it seems. i believe the official strength ended up to be F3. i was just glad it was moving away from me. the area is not densely populated. no one was injured and there was little property damage.

Looks to be a F1 Tornado. I bet that made you nervous! How big did it get?
