storm's approachin'....

"I'd like to leave you with something warm-

But never have I been a blue calm sea,

I have always been a storm..."

-Stevie Nicks

A wild windstorm came through Memphis earlier- it was actually pretty amazing, while at the same time being a little scary.

I've never heard the wind make the roaring sounds it made today... It's the first time I have felt the same awe and respect for the wind as I feel for the ocean.

Strangely enough, I wanted to be outside in the middle of it all. So there I was, taking videos and photos while trash cans and tree limbs were dancing down the street.

I know now that I could never live in "tornado alley"- I most certainly would be the one standing on the front porch, unable to tear myself away from watching the tornado as it comes straight at me!

evening storm, Brisbane, 29-10-17

The National Weather Service advised to seek shelter due to this tornado warned storm. The bees listened. There wasn't a single one buzzing around. I, on the hand, stood out on the prairie like a goon taking pictures

This is the shot I taken before the night fall & storm.

You can see storms coming in the hills of Puglia. They can be sudden and intense in the summer time. This storm washed out roads and in a few minutes I saw lighting strike a near by wind farm six times.

Took this during a storm.

This is the view looking toward Seatown and the Golden Cap. This big rainstorm was just about to catch us in its wet embrace! We got nicely wet as we hadn't bothered with raincoats as the forecast said glorious sunshine.

A rather dramatic storm front on my way back from a trip out on Saturday, the same one that had previously soaked me to the skin whilst I was stood in a field of sunflowers. Worth it though :)
