Wall cloud: 5-21-11by *lonewolf3878

Photography / Animals, Plants & Nature / Weather

Better shot of the wall cloud, complete with a clear slot forming on the left. The funnel is just starting to develop (a 2nd funnel can be seen on the far left below and to the left the clear slot).

What should've ended as a fun day turned bad though. A couple of hours after this the town of Reading, KS took a direct hit by an EF-3 tornado, killing 1 person. The tornado (and a 2nd one behind it) didn't miss my town by much, and it went on to hit Quenemo, KS further East from there.

This is an epic, beautiful shot of weather at it's most beautiful. Excellent snap shot. Too bad you didn't catch the funnel midway.

_{Were you scared?}

A little because I had to rush back from Topeka to my town, and I had to drive into the storm that had the tornado (the tornado was still several miles away though. It was a HUGE supercell t-storm)and hail to get my brother and get out of there. I was sure my town would take a direct hit too, but luckily it went more East than Northeast.

_{I'm glad it missed your town. I am terrified of tornado's but I badly want to photograph them. XD}
