storms like woah

As I look out my window now the sky’s above the ATF building are a lovely shade of blue with a few wispy clouds. A far cry from the view earlier this week when it appeared that the wrath of God was about to be unleashed upon us. I’ve never seen clouds like that before; we all just kept waiting for the twister to appear. Thankfully it did not because I can not imagine a construction trailer or site is a very good place to be during a tornado. I heard they are actually considering naming a new type of cloud after these recent formations cause that most certainly is not a cumulus cloud!
The above picture was taken with an Olympus XA on 35mm film.

Those are amazing clouds. They look like something out of a scary science fiction movie.

These are truly amazing clouds! They look like they’re moving and changing fast, especially near the bottom. The word “roiling” comes to mind.

OK Matt…next time you think “there might be a tornado in there” or “Let’s watch and see if a tornado appears” your #1 task is to head for shelter! (After you take a great photo, of course.) Mom
