I love storms!!!

I'm so glad I decided to go out front and look into the sky, because if I had passed up the opportunity, I would've missed this beautiful/frightening cloud formation! It was very eerie to watch it roll in. It was fast moving! I had never seen anything like it in all the years I have lived here! Notice the bottom of the cloud formation? There are wisps of clouds hanging down. We had "tornado-like" weather. While there were no tornadoes, there were a fair share of microbursts, which to us Phoenix people, is very similar to a tornado.

We had storm after storm roll in yesterday. I missed the first one b/c I was at work, but I was here for the others. It was crazy how fast the storms would blow through, then it was sunny and all of a sudden it was dark and another storm came in! I love crazy weather and this is now at the top of my favorite storms. I'm sad about all the damage that occurred (downed power poles, downed trees, awnings blown away...) but nature in its fullest sure is beautiful!

Below is a video of the rain. Right at the end was a flash of lightening. The kids got scared, so we headed back in!
