An apt name for the image as this Storm Battered the counrty town of Singleton as I shot this. Taken from Singleton Heights looking back toward town. The storm Cell had it all, heavy rain, A deluge if small and medium size hail and increadible wind. Shot with a Nikon D300 and the 18-70mm lens.
This image was featured on NBN tv on the night of the 22nd December as the Weather Shot of the Day.
This was an amazing Extreme Weather Event. Being blown across 1 lane of the highway by the wind and getting totally drenched to the bone in a 5 second dash from the car to the inside of KFC. The close lightning strike (150m at most) that took out the phone I was using (stupidly), and the flooded roads. On the whole a great storm chase. Thanks for the comment Andrew

Excellent shot Andrew, a weather event, not climate change.
No Phil not climate change, just a great storm. I dont believe I have ever caught climate change in any of my weather images.
Thanks for the comment.
