Storm Front

The weather reporters were warning that a violent storm was coming. I could see it in the distance.


We had wind and could hear thunder. Then we got a few minutes of rain, and that was it.

This was on Tuesday. We had a similar brush with a storm a few days before that. We could use more rain.

  4. The people of Albany, New York wish they could have shared some rain with you. Rainfall is so uneven in these times. Alana ramblinwitham.blogspot.com

  7. Great photos, and I find often the weather people put far too much emphasis on it being worse than it turns out to be, but I do respect them for making us aware that something is brewing and could be really bad.

  8. Beautiful photos, Linda! We will hopefully get more rain here in Montreal. We got rain a few days ago but it didn't help to cool down the heat and humidity. I hope the next one will. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely photos.

  9. I like your photographs.

    Here in the UK we too need more rain ... let's hope we both get some and any others that need rain too!

    All the best Jan

  11. Those dramatic storm clouds rolling in while the wind whips through the tall grass make for a truly striking capture. It is always a bit anticlimactic when a heavily hyped storm blows through with just a few minutes of rain, especially when the dry ground could really use a deep soaking.
