    Rebecca – It was early evening around 8pm. At 720pm (mid June 2012) I noticed a few cumulus clouds out over the sea that looked interesting. Twenty minutes later while getting a meal ready these clouds had shot upwards and sideways and were now looking very promising and threatening. By a little after 8pm a large tornado and three waterspouts had formed. This photo at 921pm was indicative of a very large storm that actually lasted close to 3hours and triggered my camera from memory over 1100 times as it meander around. It was the result of a cold front sliding through Florida and down across The Bahamas. I was told about it by email from someone I knew in Delray Beach who thought I was anywhere else except ‘down the road’ in The Bahamas. Lightning started from the sky downwards and finished the other way round what from my experience is a classic storm pattern rather than just an evening energy balancing storm. Some of the latter form in a very short time and are over in 20mins. John yes there are many faces in the clouds in that area.

    Very dramatic afternoon storm picture, Mike. Well done! The calm before the storm. However, better find shelter soon before it really happens! From Rebecca Hill
