Beautiful, but beware....the few times I've seen those a tornado was not far behind!
Thank you, yes it was quite scary with very strong warm winds. You could hear thunder off in the distance and a few minutes later it was all over with.

WOW! Those are really wild! Don't think I've ever seen the likes! Huge gray cotton Balls! Thanks for showing these, Lori! Bet it was one heck of a storm!! 
Thank you, it was kind of scary as the wind was strong and very warm. Thunder off in the distance and then it was gone. Really strange.

Don't believe I have seen anything like this. Beautiful and so 3D!
Thank you Pat, I have never seen these clouds either, it came with strong warm winds and thunder off in the distance. But within a few minutes they were gone.

Do you have tornados in the mountains? I realize that they "jump most fences," but I have never heard of one in the high Rockies.
I didn't think we got tornados in the mountains either but we do have them at the foothills, one deadly one a few years ago in Windsor, Colorado.

We haven't had any desert sunsets, yet. I will try and fix that. Next year we will all have desert sunrise and sets I hope. (P.J. will arrange it.) No pretty sky the last two nights. It is wet I can't get to my rain gauge, but late yesterday I had to detour to church because the road was flooded. The bayou near my house was nearly full and it is a big wide bayou. Today it has rained more. And tomorrow it is scheduled to rain even more than today. I definitely think we will make that 10 inches for these 3-4 days. So I am pulling some sunsets/rises from the file.
Florida Gulf Coast sunset
Arizona Sunset
Lake McDonald Sunset
Sunrise St. Augustine Beach
