Prairie Meadow Fog

The forecasters had been predicting big tornados for the day I shot this beginning three days previously. Indeed a strong storm front formed in the afternoon and approached Wichita at sixty miles an hour. I figured no photowalk so went to the Y to get some exercise. Soon after I arrived at the gym, the tornado warning sirens went off and I got to spend an hour in the locker room, which is the storm shelter at the Y. Afterwards I got in my workout while it rained a bit, and by the time I finished the storm had passed to the east. Quite amazingly, behind the storm it was perfectly calm, so I ended up getting in my photowalk anyway. For whatever reason, we got this unusual ground fog after the storm.... There were a few small tornados that day, but not much damage near Wichita....
