Scary Clouds & Storm Photos

[Maia Gabrial]

I love watching the skies for interesting things, not just ufo's. I've also noticed weird weather....These vids have some amazing cloud formations and storms that I thought you'd like to watch....

Thanks Maia Gabrial... Love (and miss "real") storms. Turbulent weather is rare where I live. Where I grew up, there were dangerous thunderstorms, tornadoes and blizzards. I don't remember ever being afraid but really miss that adrenaline rush during the moment. Free Buzz from mother nature... tee hee.

This was the same storm in Calgary that produced the mammatus clouds - just earlier - note the light beam ;)

Mrs Anchor told me she read that odd looking clouds are often UFO's using steam as camouflage so as not to upset the natives. I'll ask her for a reference

I have seen it - it usually indicates a horizontal split in air mass movements - where the clouds at one level are following the air mass in one direction, wheres another air mass either above or below (although because of the distance this isn't always obvious), is moving in another direction - each pulling some clouds along with them. It is weird to see but not that rare.
