Tornado video
This video shows good footage on a dangerous tornado that takes place in Tuscaloosa, Alabama
Stratocumulus Clouds
These clouds take part in the lower cloud group, these clouds are low, lumpy and gray. These clouds give off light precipitation.
Altcumulus Clouds
These types of clouds are classified in the middle group of clouds. There height is ranging from 2000m to 7000 meters. They are grayish white with one part of the cloud darker than the other.
Cirrus Clouds
Cirrus clouds are the most common of all clouds they compose of entirely of ice crystals. They are long thin and most of the cloud shapes look like they have a tail.
Foundation of Clouds
Clouds can come in all different kinds of forms but clouds are tiny water droplets or ice crystals in the sky and are formed by different processes. Their different kinds of precipitation depends on the atmospheres tempereature.
Hurricane formation
Hurricanes form in the warm tropic waters and die down when they move onto land or out of tropic waters.
Lightning
Lightning is the main result of thunderstorm, lightning is know to be up to 30,000 degrees Celsius. This then means it can be up to 54,000 degrees fahrenheit.
Wind pressure
Wind is moving air, warm air rises and cool air comes and takes its place. This movement brings different wind pressures around the globe.
Virga Rain
Rain is a precipitation that falls to the Earth in drops of 5mm in diameter. This is a form of Virga rain which evaporates before it reaches the earths ground.
Supercell Thunderstrom
A supercell thunderstorm is a huge rotation thunderstorm, it can last for several hours as a storm. These storm are known to bring tornadoes and rain that produces hail.
Condensation
Condensation is the process in which water vapor changes its state from a vapor or gas into a liquid. Condensation is respnsible for the formation of clouds, a common example is when there is a liquid form on grass in the morning.
Thunderstorm cloud formation
Thunderstorms form with very warm moist air rises into cool air. As the humid air rises water vapor condenses forming huge clouds, then resulting in this you get storms.
Amazing CLoud Formation
This cloud formation is quite amazing, the clouds are moving quickly and is bringing a severe thunder storm with it. For the safety of people it would be best to stay away.
Double Rainbow
This is a picture of a double rainbow, which is not seen very often. When given the chance to see one of these you should really take the time to observe.

Hurrican Alex
As Hurricane Alex targeted the Western side of the U.S. Gulf Coast. Government officals along the Louisianas southern tip feared heavily that the storm would push more oil from BP's broken well into very fragile wetlands.
Shocking long thin tornado
This extremely interesting shaped tornado in south east Patrica, Texas on May5 2006. This evolved into a long thin rope as it drifted northward. This tornado caused damages to small towns, farmland, and livestock.
Tornado Occurance
This is a very interesting tornado in the Nebraska Panhandle on June 10, 2004. This storm seemed to become very dangerous just as it started to produce the tornado . Later on in the storm it had full condensation to the ground and was very strong.
