Stormy Weather
My daughter was up Saturday and we decided to head to the lake, as we got to the beach, everyone was running for their cars..letting us know that the storm was coming..we thought it looked amazing so we went down to the water and watched this huge storm cloud coming in..beautiful cloud formation..lots of thunder…and wind…lightning in the distance..just nature at its best..it never rained on us, we watched it for a good 20 minutes..as we got in the van to leave the rain came down in buckets..
Taken at Philips Park on Lake Huron between Caseville and Port Austin..

looks like the same storm that chased me across the beach in Deal, Kent, England!
What’s the chances?.....Great capture Kim! There’s some weird weather about!
Kim Calvert replied
Yeah we have had storms for the past 3 days..storm like crazy..down pours, even flooding streets, then it would clear up and be sunny and blue skies everywhere..weird..Thanks Grim

WOW Kim, that’s some cloud. Well captured. I wonder if that’s the cloud that picked up steam and dumped a few inches of rain on us Sunday. In metric, it was almost 200mm….unbelievable flooding. >< Ron
Kim Calvert replied
It was crazy weather..the down pours flooded so many yards and streets..but this was worth the trip to the beach..Thank you Ron

Another great shot Kim. As grimduke says, it looks just like the Kent coast.

Thank you..Never seen the Kent Coast..would love to though.

My storm shot, ‘Storm coming’ was taken about a mile inland from the Kent coast. A lot of heavy weather comes in from the North Sea.
