Tornadoes in the Mist

Driving to Madison Wisconsin for cousin Meghan's wedding in my red car ended up being effing dangerous. The picture below was what was north of me:











This was directly west of me (chasing me, actually):












And this is what I was driving into:



Super fun roadtrip!!! Thank god for wine ,vodka, beer and my daughter-in-law's parents who reside in Dubuque and gave me shelter from the storm.

  2. Fascinating pictures but pretty scary. I had something similar when I went to Florida once...gorgeous sun setting in the sky with lovely colours and a thick, black line of cloud that looked as if it were a blanket...felt like War of the Worlds stuff! Hooray for vodka!

  6. Ah, memories! I spent the first 22 years of my life in Iowa and remember those skies well! (And still have a sister-in-law in Dubuque to give me shelter when I need it.)
