08/15/2009

We had a little flood this afternoon. An innocent looking little cloud dumped 1 inch of rain in about 20 minutes with winds that had to be around 70 mph. Rick was stuck over at the neighbors' for a while, and Minx and I spent a short time in the storm shelter when it appeared that the large shop door might blow in! I sent this first picture in to channel 11 as a weather digipic, and they used it twice on the 10pm news tonight.









As the storm moved away it looked quite harmless again.




Minx is exhausted after the ordeal.

Cool photos! That rainbow is incredibly low in the sky. Congrats on getting it on the news. Minx has got to toughen up to make it in West Texas. We almost adopted a calico in Post but decided we weren't ready to go back to kittydom yet.
