dont tell Paul that.hes already made jokes of my police collection pictures from the States ...truth

this Sheriff warned us he would take us to the Local Court HOUSE if any misuse.......no joke

but of course after his picture being taken he mellowed..

[dogs32]

My favourite shot from the Storm

[dogs32]

The next day we headi off forr some Chicken :lol:

Went to a place where they clame to have the best chicken in the States...

It was fantasic chicken with loads of it to eat at Okarche....

Also met a fantastic guy who I think was called Dave????? who knew Paul...

This guy was a Tornado fanatic....made Reed Timmer look like a Rookie....

His walls in his house were covered in lightning and Twister pics of the Storms he took over the years...

And the videos of the Tornados he as seen were breath taking...

here are a few shots.....

IN TROUBLE WITH THE LAW AGAIN

now if I can get video of Tornadoe's and lightning shots like this guy i will be forever happy

Childress TX

Part 1

[dogs32]

Maybe this is the one that made us all jump.....the one to the right is realy close...camera is not zoomed in

[Ross B]

I dont think so mate, i have that area covered by my camera and you dont see the strike. Plus it's much darker, cracking video anyway

Edit: Didn't see the one to the right, its possible thats it then! As long as its just your camera settings making it appear that dark.

[Nick F]

Stunning photos again Pat, especially like the mammatus with lightning crawlers. Have not seen one bit of mammatus, probably due to lack of strong instability.

[dogs32]

yes I know Ross........I realised this after posting......still good though and close...

Nick.F........I hope you get some cracker of storms before you come back as I know you love your lightning...

I hope you see a good Supercell like or a F5 Twister,

I m not worried always have next year..

good luck out there...........

[John Hanrahan]

Been stuck to this thread for the last 2 hours. Promised my wife I'd have the lawn cut and some other bits done before she gets back from a birthday party. Not going to get done by the look of things and all your fault Pat! Loving the footage, especially the condensation funnel making it all the way to the ground at Rule.

[dogs32]

:lol: say sorry to your wife.... :lol:

Its addictive I know.....I have had to turn the computer off for the first time since I got back...

John there might be a chance of Storms over the week gives us a chance to brush up on your lightning skills

edit I shouldnt laugh realy .its better than nothing

edit.when i send you the DVD it will be in HD...so take no notice of quality here

maybe I should put that funnel up in HD then.....will at some point...this week
