    Great shot, Wade.........Nokout....if they are bigger they usually turn into tornados (f3 to 5's are not uncommon...just like in twister) in this part of Ks.

    Very cool shot, Art. Getting the trees and houses in the foreground is what makes it. So often we see shots of tornadoes, for example, and because we have no visual frame of reference we don't realize how large they are.

    Seems there were reports of a small tornado just noth of here in Newton and caused thousands of dollars in damage. Very possible it came from this cloud. Strange for this time of year.
