Ominous Skies

We've had very little rain here in Central IL this summer, despite the fact that the northern 1/2 of the state has been setting records for the largest amount of rainfall ever recorded for July.

This week we've had a couple of late afternoons where the sky fills with crazy clouds, strange colors, and even some small funnel cloud spottings.  Nothing ever touched the ground, not even a drop of rain.  But the sky sure looked ominous and pretty cool!
