Description
Today, it was a very hot, humid, almost suffocating summer day, at the end of which a serious thunderstorm rolled over the entire country. You could litterally see the storm front rolling overhead... it looked really weird, like a wall of clouds was quickly closing in and filling up the evening sky...Ok, you'll never again hear me say that the sky in Holland is completely uninterresting

Ja, zoiets had ik ook nog nooit eerder gezien, laat staan dat ik het in *Nederland* had verwacht...
Was wel erg indrukwekkend, is geloof ik zelfs nog op het nieuws geweest. En dit is nog een redelijk "normale" foto ervan, ik heb foto's gezien die vele malen mooier waren

Hehe, yeah, from the photo it looks a bit that way, but it's just a huge, wide, rolling cloud... still impressive, but far less destructive. Thanks for the

WOW, this is an absolutely amazing shot! I love how the trees at the bottom give it perspective as to size.

Yeah, it was really creepy to see such a huge cloud rolling over my head... made me feel very tiny indeed (the trees already look tiny, I guess you couldn't even see a person, had one been in the shot

WOOOOOOW!
That amazing! It looks like a USA tornado-alley sky! You were quick to catch such a structure, they usually don't last long. How long were you able to watch it?

Yeah, I've seen some documentaries on Discovery Chanel about tornadoes in the US and it indeed seems a similar sky. This wasn't a tornado, however, just a very large depression between hot and cold air that was passing all over the Netherlands. It all passed rather quickly, though; I was able to watch it for about 5, maybe 10 minutes tops before it had passed over our house.

this reminds me of a nightmare i had when i was 5 years old. a cloud, just like this... shaped like a sideways tornado, rolling back and forth threw the sky, following me. i ran to a house and to my suprise... no roof. i couldnt escape the cloud. apparently.. i still cant =op
