[99oildrops]

Wow! these types of storms don't hit in the early morning very often. Nice clouds & nice video!

[Tstormer]

cool! good job, though I'd rather hear the thunder!

[gammler0852]

In this freaky atmosphere every stormchaser would stand up at 7 a.m. LOL

But huge thunderstorm with mammatus clouds at 6:36 nice footage!

[TexasHighDef]

We sure could use some of that rain here in Austin! It will look like it is coming and then it just fades away.. Great Job!!*****Duke

[weatherstorms]

Intense lightning!

[NaturalScienceFan]

Cool Stuff! Nice lightning and clouds!

I am back home now! Trying to catch up on all the information on Bill! Hope people are not too mad at me because of me not being here to track Bill.

Great Video Karla, and thanks for your comment on my video!

Thanks for the stars, my friend, and for watching and commenting!  Best lightning I've gotten so far: now if only I could get STILLS of CGs, I'd be happy! LOL =]

[DistractionCascade]

Nice storm video! We had a good storm today and more tomorrow but nothing from Hurricane Bill, he's staying over the ocean, but will be bringing lots of heavy surf.

[stormspinner1]

Hey, DistractionCascade, stay safe out on the Eastern Seaboard, 'hear? Enjoy the water, but be careful of rips (rip currents). Appreciate you watching and commenting! =]

[CaStormChaser]

Awesome footage!! Some very mean looking clouds in the distance!! Very interesting CG at 0:18 !!

5 Stars!!

[stormspinner1]

Yeah, CaStormChaser, the clouds and lightning were mad wicked! What a wake up call ... LOL!! Thanks for watching and commenting, appreciate it!

[BassLaunch]

As usual excellent job. Great attention to detail, zooms, and captures..... Yeah the computer models were way off in timing due to the upper disturbance moving south interacting with the outflow boundary near the Red River. 7 AM though is a nice time for storms....

ATMOS!!!! Oh, it's been too long! How's every little thing? Hope you're well - thank you for the professional comment on my little video. Still learning the ins and outs on my camera, and STILL wish I could catch CGs on stills! (Nope, delete, delete LOL) Thank God for video capabilities, all I got to say. Thanks EVER so much for watching and commenting, appreciate it!! =] Tell everyone at Fox4 howdy for me, I'll get back there sometime. LOL

[BeechSundowner]

Very impressive rain curtain. Hope you ddin't have to swim afterward LOL

[stormspinner1]

Nope, rain came down all at once for about a half hour or so, received around an inch. Didn't stay long. LOL Thanks for watching and commenting, BeechSunDowner, appreciate it!

[TheDogs323232]

lovely well done...+

[stormspinner1]

Thanks, Pat, it was not a lovely way to be awakened! LOL But since God decided to, why not capture a bit of His power in the skies? Thanks for watching and commenting, appreciate it! =]

[irishthankgod]

Oh i will try and get a bit of footage if its any good but usually we just dont notice the odd tornado in the constant rain LOL , thanks my friend for the warning i got a new camera i am busy breaking it at the moment its very technical for me anyway but i will keep at it , God bless and txstoryteller also my best too you , HUGs Cathy

[stormspinner1]

Breaking it or breaking it in? Hopefully, the latter. LOL Looked at HD video cameras, holysmoke, out of my budget. That would be 6 months worth of paychecks!! *sigh* But my little point and shoot doesn't do too badly, does it? LOL Stay safe, my friend. Tornadoes nothing to mess with!! LOL

[LysosTarcho]

Fantastic 5 stars

[stormspinner1]

Thanks, LysosTarcho, appreciate the stars and you watching and commenting!

[rghfghf]

i was a sleep and i got woken up my my power flickering and didn't know what happened till i heard a loud thunder>>>YEP storm but i was too tired to get my camera so i just mainly enjoy yours here :oD

5star video!

[stormspinner1]

Glad I could catch it for you, neighbor, I would have slept through it if the thunder wasn't so loud! Reminded me of my mother: Get up. Me: Lemme alone, just a couple more hours. Mom: When I say get up, I mean get. Up. (And don't roll your eyes at me!) LOL Thanks for watching and commenting, appreciate it!

[irishthankgod]

Imagine sleeping through LOL , its fantastic what a sight the colours are indigo blue i never saw a sky line like it, that lightening looks like it looking for a something i would stay out of its way for sure , many thanks once again for another hum dinger of a storm , xxxxxxxs God bless and stay safe hugs Cathy

[stormspinner1]

You're right about that, Cathy, 'twas a humdinger of a storm. Storms formed along a cold front to our north and slowly, slowly meandered this way south ... I wiped out at 2 in the morning, and God gave me this wake up call at 7 a.m.! The actual front didn't pass through until 9. It's stalled now, may have more isolated storms this weekend and Monday. Hear y'all might be getting effects from Hurricane Bill in 5 days or so - stay safe, 'hear? Thanks for watching/commenting!

[txstoryteller]

NICE CGs! Thunder's good too, but that sky...WHOA!! Glad I slept through that part; I would have freaked! LOL FIVE stars; favorited; the StormSpinner "strikes" again! LOL Well done! Loves ya!

[stormspinner1]

And you snored through the majority of it! Some PorchChase partner ... usually you find the clouds for me, but this time you missed! LOL That's okay, still loves ya! Thanks for watching, commenting, and especially for the stars and favorit-ing. =]
