Not exactly what you want to see while on a boat.

Luckily, someone yelled to us and asked if we wanted to tie off to their dock and ride out the storm there. Of course we took up the offer. Terrifying and awesome experience.

Wind gust estimate

Can someone help me estimate a wind gust? I was camping during a severe thunderstorm and a large wind gust came through. Our (about 1 foot deep) anchored cover-all started nearly coming out of the ground, on the way home, multiple large branches on the road max size approx 6 inches thick 10 ish feet long. Let me know if a different subreddit would be better.

Odd cloud formation

Hey everyone, I was just watching a storm last night and while recording I captured these odd looking clouds through the lightning and just wondering if anyone has a clue what this is? Thanks. (Apologies for the quality they're screen grabs from a low fps video)

Distant Lightning Show Timelapse

Caught the storms that went through southern WI last night from my rooftop in the Chicago suburbs. Probably one of the cooler timelapses I’ve taken.

Sheets of rain in Chicago whipping around the building

Check out the heavy duty sheets of rain pounding downtown Chicago Friday afternoon! You can hear the rain rattling the glass while the building sways in the 60+mph winds. July 3, 2026. ⛈️
