Nature Photography: Severe Thunderstorm

August 25th, 2010

A severe thunderstorm dumped almost an inch of rain here yesterday. To be quite honest, I didn't think this storm would do much of anything.

Oh, yes, it started out with a lot of wind, which brought the term "blowhard" to my mind. And then the wind picked up. I started to wonder if my front yard mesquite tree could withstand it...

My tough little mesquite did just fine. The rock garden next to the mesquite also fared well. Nothing like a late-summer drink...
