There is an interesting set-up forecast for Colorado, but we can't make it up there from our home
base Wichita Falls without a 10 hour / 650 miles north drive. Take my systematical underestimation
of distant potential setups into account and you get the 'Quittung'. Instead we focus on storms that
might develop much closer a bit west from here along a diffuse dryline and/or the Cap Rock. Short stop, rattle snake does not look very happy, so we better grab the zoom lens and keep some distance. Amazing shots by Philippe, geez!  I see you!  Destroyed wind farm near Turkey, Texas:   By sheer luck, a little storm cell develops east of Lubbock after dark, throws a few intriguing lightnings before dying quickly and pushes our weather rating up to a solid three, we are happy:      |
