any of you remember hearing about the La Plata tornado in MD a couple years back? well, i live within 4 min. driving time from its damage, which is still around. if you go here, and look for the 381 marker, i live about there.

anyway, this was our first bad storm of the year, and the rotation of the storm was kinda freaking everyone out. i didnt have the camera at the time, but when it was bad, you could see the clouds spinning directly over our house. pretty cool stuff lol.

the storm was one single cell, so it was sunny everywhere else. this made for some pretty good rainbow shots.


as i was taking that shot, i started getting pelted by hail. ran underneath our front porch and watched helplesly as the tib was nailed.


rainbow with some hail.


other half of the horizon which looks great..


double rainbow action


a little bit more spinning in the clouds.

awwoooh, that poor tibby, getting pelted with hail! save it goddamn it!

Alright guys, i think we can all take a breather and say PHEWW...
