I might as well comment on these now before I head home. The video and photos certainly show the awesome power of nature. Those volcano pictures with the lightning are just plain terrifying. They give me chills. I can’t imagine what that would be like to see that up close and personal. Wow! The tornado video is just too cool. I’m just amazed at how fast it moved through there and it picked up those cars like they were Matchbox cars. I’m sure I’ll be watching that video more than once.

That is amazing video. As some of you might know, I am one of the original Storm Chasers from the University of Oklahoma back in the early 70s. I saw a few tornados and have seen lots of footage over the years, but that video is amazing. Hopefully as there are more and more security cameras around, we will get more video like that. This video will help greatly in the study of the wind structures in Tornados.

Janice, thanks for posting that video.

Janice, I do hope your enjoying your vacation in my neck of the woods, I live just 50 miles north of Charlotte.
Hey got a question, I seen an article where scientists say that all of our natural happpenings, extreme storms, sudden volcano eruptions, killer cyclones and earthquakes that go backwards (start out as small tremors then get more intense), are not unusal. As for me and the forty two years I’ve been on the planet, it looks to me loke all of it is getting more intense, what’s your take?
