BradB Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 The first severe storms of 2018 were dropping a few tornado's east of the Dallas Metroplex this afternoon . Here are a few shots west of Tyler TX using SkyForce : Kind of looking like a wall cloud forming , but that's all I was able to capture : Have a great week mates !!

John I doubt it John, it's very weird where I live. I've spoken to an 87 year old ex-Air Force metrologist about it, my own theory why we seldom get thunderstorms in my subdivision and he said I was correct. It's the geography and the cold water of the river so close by. I call it several things depending on how the storm approaches. 1) The Douglasville skirt, because it skirts us by, 2) The Douglasville Split, because when it approaches us it always splits, and 3) Under the dome because you could go three miles in any direction from the subdivision and the park (1400 acres) and you'l get some awesome storms. But above us, silence. I also call thunder echoes "hand me down" thunder. The guys who work at the park call it "The Vortex." But here's hoping!

VH-KDK Posted January 22, 2018 Share Posted January 22, 2018 Some very angry weather in your set. Don't get too close to any twisters though or you might get into an uncontrollable spin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paulb Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Excellent set of shots John! The weather effects are first class! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sammy H Posted January 23, 2018 Share Posted January 23, 2018 Wonderful series John, however, If you are going to view storms maybe take something a little safer next time. I would hate for you to disappear in a storm then we would not have any more shots to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
