Description
This is another version of the image I posted earlier. Of the 2 I like this one better due to the awesome and scary clouds on the right side. This was taken near Amarillo, Texas in the panhandle. This shape of storm is called a mesocyclone and can be bad. Definition of mesocyclone: a rapidly rotating air mass within a thunderstorm that often gives rise to a tornado.
