Wild Weather!

There is wild weather all over the country this year! Mother nature is wreaking havoc in many different ways. I've been a midst this crazy weather, but fortunately have been able to escape any damages. A couple of weeks ago, I was amongst the very many at O'Hare that had to seek shelter since there were tornado warnings in the area... and more recently, last night, I witness much lightening followed by a hail storm right outside of my home. Wild.

It was of the later that I got this first picture. I stood in my window for several minutes (without tripod - I should have just got it out!) in order to get at least one strike. This was it!

The second is of the clouds this morning. It almost looks like a painting....

Wherever you are, I hope you enjoy your holiday weekend and have safe weather!
