Hey guys,

Unbelievable, I am never never going to complain about the weather here again. These are awesome in every way. Excellent pictures of some frightening weather.

I agree that these are fantastic pictures but wonder about their origin?...I had these same pics sent to me via email on 2nd June 2005 claiming to be recent storms here in Western Australia at Bunbury, it even made the morning news and was found to be a hoax.

Great shots. That was one awesome storm, I live in Burlington, so we didn't get hit by it at all. Saw alot of footage on the news. I have lived in Ontario all my life and storms like this are very rare. So to get shots like that are a rarity around here.
