Spring Storms

The passage of Spring into summer has provided some great electrical storms to photograph this year.
This front passed through last week, with the photo below showing  its intensity after a hot day.


This still from a video of the storm shows the ferocity of the electrical discharges.


The storm passed and indicated another clear day tomorrow.
Many I have talked too feel these events to be more like weather patterns observed at this time 
of year some 25- 30 years ago.




Reptiles are out of hibernation and the first cicada have been heard.
Whether we get a hot summer or a cool one, a wet or a dry one is still up for grabs.
Either way the garden is loving it and so, sadly, is the lawn.

  1. Hi David
    I love those long low, rolling clouds.
    Quite rare. Nice capture.
    Up here, in Robbo, the word is the weather is "returning to normal". After 12 years of below average rainfall, that's a good thing.
    But as you will no doubt be thinking "What is Normal?"
    Cheers Denis
