That was the sun.  It was just setting and was behind the clouds causing the storm.

Wow, simply beautiful! I've been to Reno quite a few times during the winter. But I never been there during the summer.  I should visit some time during the summer, since I love thunderstorms and being a Californian, going to Florida or the Midwest is quite far :D

I grew up in Reno and while they might not be all that frequent, the thunderstorms here can be very powerful and sometimes even have medium sized hail. The thing that beats other parts of the USA is that the air is so dry u can see every dynamic of the storms as they form and its amazing

It's 100 degrees Fahrenheit, this would be circa 38 degrees Celsius.

Sounds still quite hot too me. :)
