Description


This was a very intersting cloud formation to watch as it rolled along almost looking like a cigar... However, this was during a storm chase on May 25th in northeast Iowa. This will be one of two photos I plan to show. This storm has a history of producing many large tornado's some wedge and at one time over a mile in width. It had a history of killing 7 people and destroyed the south half of Parkersburg Iowa. I drove through the town later that evening and was in shock myself and was unable to photograph the destruction. I have driven through this town many times, and now it is totally gone. No houses, no businesses, no trees, nothing. Cars and trucks all thrown. This storm produced many tornado's across north east Iowa leaving destruction to many communities between Hwy 20 and Hwy 3 From west of Waterloo (Parkersburg) to east of Manchester.. It always amazes me that a storm so beutiful can also be so deadly. Thanks for viewing, and please pray for all those affected by the tornado's this past week, not only in Iowa, but through out the midwest as this week in particular has been hit hard in many places.

Even if there are some distracting elements (electric wires and the blue light in the front of the car) overall is a nice photo.

Awesome storm cloud! Great shot! A Tornado ripped through a town in MN about a week ago, killing a 4 year old girl. :(
