Storm Clouds at Morning

The golden glow behind these dark clouds is deceptive. At sunrise, storm clouds began moving in prior to a severe weather outbreak around noon. Dallas County was under tornado warnings for the next few hours, and two homes were destroyed in the Summerfield community just a few miles north of our house. Another seven homes received damage as well as an auto body shop.

Then, locate "Dallas County" on WSFA-TV's video strip.
You can also view the widespread damage in nearby Prattville.

  3. Tornados are tremendous forces that wreck things really fast. We have had a few and fortunately none hit our home.

  8. Well here in the UK we do have sunsets like this, but not the severe weather. I would like to see a tornado, but think I would regret getting what I wished for!
    Anyway, great picture.
