Last week a severe storm approach us from the north and was moving south. Fortunatly it started drfting east as it came across the Marine Base so we ended up only being sideswipped at my location. This storm did kick up some 50 mph winds with some of these shots done with me grabbing the tripod legs with both hands to keep it from blowing over. May not have been the greatest storm for CG lightning but was fun just to be out there. Take care.

*WHEW!* I read "Desert Storm" and thought I had been recalled. :)

3& 4 are really nice with #4 being the best, IMHO.
