I decided that since I’m going on a backpacking trip in 2 weeks, I should up my exercise. So I went outside to run the track and saw a little storm cloud making it’s way toward campus. Usually when afternoon storms come through, they are very big and last quite a while. Therefore, this little baby cloud did not concern me. I started my laps and noticed that a much larger storm cloud had joined the baby one, to create a massive storm. I kept running and kept my eye on the cloud and managed to get 15 minutes in when I could no longer pretend that I didn’t hear the thunder. I mean, I saw some lightening – oddly enough overlapping white fluffy clouds. That was just weird, because I usually see lightening with a backdrop of dark, angry clouds. Yeah, it was time to go inside for safety…
The lightening was hitting very close to our location, so I decided to take a video! Hope you like seeing me, Ian and Ellen being ridiculous!
whoaaa that was cool! Thunderstorms are exciting! We haven’t had a single thunderstorm this year. and it hasn’t even rained in quite a while. I love your videos! and thanks for the text letting me know about it!
Well i’m gonna go to the pool until dad and linda return. See you soon enough!
Christina,
That is a ridiculous video! Good storm.
Three nights ago I was in Omaha Nebraska and at 11:00 PM I saw a thunderstorm far to the north. It was too far away to hear thunder but I saw flashes of lightning in the clouds every second.
We look forward to seeing you in about ten days!
Dad
Wow! Quite a storm! I think you need a tripod though…
See you soon.
Love, MOM
