Well, this looked a lot better in real life than my cheapo-camera capture here. The clouds and localized rain activity yesterday were just beautiful.

last night's storm - lots of promise, but no rain.

Along the Apache Trail.
Monsoon clouds die down as we drove out east, all the real action was happening in the west valley.

Fangars, nice to see your posts again. :wings: Great depth of color.


Here's an example of the monsoon tease. Just a distant flash over the mountains. We have had some great rains come through but only late at night with none of the exposed lightning that is so fun to capture.

Finally a Decent Storm Last Night

We finally got a good couple waves of thunderstorms rolling through last night.

First an early tease:
