September 10th - Big Foot, Asteroids and Boomerangs

The shelf cloud coming through at the front of the storm looked like a big foot crashing down!

You can almost imagine an asteroid hitting the earth spewing debris toward us.


Alto cumulus clouds resemble a giant boomerang flying across the sky.
