Summer Storms

Its that wonderful time of year in South Florida. We are well into the storm season and it seems a daily thunderstorm rolls around in the afternoon. I have spent a good deal of time chasing these storms over the years and am excited to hopefully add some new images this summer. Unfortunately, I haven’t gotten out yet but I wanted to showcase some of my favorites from the past. Standing out in the Everglades when one of these whips up is an awesome experience. For one thing, the cool winds that precede the deluge feel great when it is 90 degrees plus; and it also helps blow the mosquitoes of my skin.

The lightning shows can be incredible and the sheer size of some of these storms just helps put things back in perspective. I hope you enjoy them.

    Stunning photos. We don’t get clouds like these on the west coast.

    Thanks Jim, yeah, but you have a few other sights to make up for it.

    Fantastic photos, we never see storms like these in the UK, they look awesome. I guess from a safety point of view you need to know what you are doing during these occasions. Phil

    Thanks Phil! I wouldn’t say I know what I’m doing. Just standard lack of common sense. =)
