I think that was the micro-burst last summer up by Glasgow (maybe?) I know it was the northeast side of the state. Impressive/scary stuff.

Wow. It doesn't even look real. It looks like one of those fantasy artists painted that. Quite impressive.

I believe this was in the Glasgow area. Note the green color in the clouds. I witnessed a storm approach about 15 years ago in the same area. Biggest storm I've ever been witness to.

Green clouds = bad storm

I'm sure the colors were edited but I doubt they used it to make a cloud and a rainstorm appear in the sky.

Looking at that photo, I knew I had seen something about it before. It was a Yahoo news item on their front page 6 months ago, which linked to this article:

Some other cool pictures from the same area, from the same photog.
