storms.........

I have had the unfortunate experience of getting caught in a few storms in my time.
Just wondering if anyone has any pics of approaching nasties.
I can remember seeing a waterspout out of Mortern when I was a kid..... anyone got one on camera?

The attached shot of a downburst I took on land. Apparently very dangerous for light aircraft.

Fizzed less than 1 km from us, the wave on the right must have been 15ft high.

that's scary stuff onerabbit.

Here's a storm out Warwick way. It was really 2 storms coming from different directions and they both
completely missed my farm. Not a drop.
It was in the middle of the drought in the late 90's

I have a pic of a killer looking storm over Brisvegas taken from out the front of the Hornibrook Hwy Bridge looking back t'wards the city. The approaching storm cloud looks like a massive tsunami wave about to destroy everything in it's path.

Unfortunately I have no webhosting service so if anybody else could host the pic pls let me know and I'll send it across
