WalMart near the 441 South and Bowens Mill Road intersection. Friend just messaged me pea sized hail.

I'm at 110 S Peterson Ave, and the wind and the rain was pretty strong around this same time.

Is there a way to see how many lightning strikes hit Coffee County, GA, with this storm that just paseed thru? It was a constant like a strobe light. It was a good downpour too!

SAHARAN DUST IS BACK! 🐪 Get ready for several large plumes of dust across Florida and the Gulf over the next 5-10 days. Remember the dust can weaken or suppress tropical activity in impacted areas and bring vibrant sunrises and sunsets too!

My favorite clouds... Mammatus Clouds!! Had a little bit of a storm passing south of us and got to see a few of these.

Residents of Newton, Kansas, were treated to one of nature's most surreal displays as hundreds of giant cloud gates appeared to pour into the evening sky like a frozen waterfall of storm clouds.

For a few unforgettable moments, drivers slowed down.

Phones came out.

And almost everyone looked up.

Sometimes the most amazing sights appear right above our heads.

Forever Rowdy. Thank you for every lap, every rivalry, and every memory.

BREAKING: Two US Navy fighter jets have just had a MID-AIR COLLISION during the air show at Mountain Home Air Force Base in Idaho

It appears all four crew members punched out of the aircraft, which then fell to the ground and exploded.

Pray for the crew. Their conditions are unknown.
