Cloud at 1:08 p.m. |
That contrast helped the storms blossom.
A few were severe, with fairly large hail, but the overwhelming majority of the thunderstorms were the garden variety type.
But many of them developed fast. Super fast
Same cloud, much bigger at 1:18 p.m. |
As you can see the cloud grew fast. (By the way, I don't think the cloud even existed before about 1 p.m.)
By the time the second photo was taken, the cloud was beginning to produce lightning.
By the time the last photo was taken, it was a full fledged thunderstorm.
Same cloud, bigger still, and a now a thunderstorm at 1:29 p.m. |
The cycle repeated itself all afternoon. Storms blossomed, got briefly intense, then disappeared only to be replaced by new storms.
At least it made the sky pretty.
