NYC storm from the cockpit last night

My husband took this photo on his approach to JFK last night during the storm last night and I thought it was incredible...

Dense fog rolled into Chicago at just the right (or wrong) time and completely obscured the Navy Pier fireworks. Nature had other plans.

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.

Why thunderstorm/rain warning if no thunderstorm?

Sorry if this is a dumb question. My area got a thunderstorm warning with indication of rain, but when you look at the hourly reports it only shows clouds.

What is the thin band showing up on the radar moving south before a storm comes in from the west

While looking at the radar for a storm approaching greater Boston, I noticed there was a thin band moving towards the south at a perpendicular direction from the approaching storm to the west. What is it?

Im going to Mississippi State University for broadcast meteorology, but I have a terrible fear of severe weather. Am I cooked?

Ik it sounds counterintuitive, and I truly am fascinated by weather, but I am terrified of severe weather along with that fascination. I have panic attacks whenever risk days are higher than slight. I really want to pursue this passion but idk how to get over my fear. Ive tried being as prepared as possible but I still worry even so.
