Wow, that is a fantastic cloud photo! Long ole time to be without power though, yikes! Very cute pic of Rusty! XO
Thank you. π That is average out here in the boonies. One time it was no power for 7 days. XO
Thank you. π It always takes a long time to restore power out here. XO
There were bad storms here on Monday evening, too…lots of people with no power, thankfully ours was good. There was a lot of straight wind damge,too,and trees down on homes, etc. We always take weather warnings seriously, because well they can be BAD.
Great pictures! That sky is boiling…
Glad you didn’t lose power. Thank you. π XO
So far (knock on wood) no power outages here although we’ve had some bad t-storms……the weather is extra strange this year – hopefully it will move out of the STRANGE category and into the USUAL category! Cool cloud photo.
Hugs, Pam and Teddy
Glad you haven’t had any outages. XO
That is a stunning photo! 6 hours is a long time without power, and at least you were prepared with your battery operated lantern.
Thank you. π Yes, it is a nice lantern. XO
We are still in a drought situation. A fairly short power outage last month. Usually the storms too it, but with a lack of much rain…we haven’t had much outage. Only 15 inches for the entire year. And it’s close to June.
Glad you haven’t had many outages. π XO
Wow, that photo is amazing!
Thank you. π XO
Great photos. I’m sorry about the power outage, though.
Thank you. π XO
Yes, those short storms can cause long problems!
They sure can.
That’s an awfully long time without power, for a tiny storm.
We had a brief couple of showers, and a bit of wind, but all around us there were trees down, traffic lights out, dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria!
No, just kidding, hope whomever was injured by these lines of storms is okay now.
Yes, it is. but it is always like that out here in the boonies. XO
We had storms here too…but no power failure, thank cod. Sorry yours went out for so long.
Glad you didn’t lose power. XO
Very cool photo!! We had a big storm last night too and I was glad it broke the heat!
xx
Mya
Ours did not break the heat, but it is supposed to be like 30 degrees colder tomorrow. XO
Lulu: “NO THUNDER!!!”
Yes, there was thunder.
Looks like you were prepared. Great sky shot.
Thank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday. Scritches to the kitties and a big hug to mom. β₯
We lose power often in the country so we are always prepared. XO
WOW well done David that is an amazing snap.
Crazy how a few minutes caused so much darkness
Hugs cecilia
He thanks you. XO
My goodness, another power outage? And because of a 5-minute storm? That certainly sounds like no fun at all. I hope it wasn’t too warm and that you all stayed comfortable. And well done, Rusty, on keeping an eye on that lantern! Purrs!
Thank you. π It was pretty hot. XO
That sucks! Both photos are really cool. XOCK, angels Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid & Sawyer, Lisbeth, Calista Jo, Cooper Murphy, Kizmet, Audrey, Raleigh, Gibbs & Tali

A very nice cloud photo… foreboding knowing the storm you had and subsequent power outage. Good Rusty was there to handle the lantern duties. Power outages are tough in both hot months and cold months. We have had some wild lightning the last couple of days. Rain too… woo-hoo! Not enough to bust the drought but hoping it is the start of our rainy seasonβ
Thank you. π Rusty is always on top of things- usually literally. XO
LOL!
That’s a really cool photo!
Glad you all weathered the storm and power outage.
Thank you. π XO

Yes, back to normal. Thank you. π I need to look again for the lion. XO
Great photo! Looks like Rusty was doing a good job of taking care of things during the outage.
Rusty is always so helpful. π
Ugh, summer storms that cause power outages are the worst π
Yes, they are. Actually winter is worst because of the heat. XO
Gracious, that’s a long outage, the storm must have taken down a pole.
At least you nabbed some cool photos!
Took down a large tree and it took forever for them to remove it. XO
Both great photos ~ We had a short powerful thunderstorm too ~ Hugs ^_^

Thank you. π XO
I love both of these photos, Ellen, but not the six hour blackout (or the thunder)!
Thank you. XO
Bummer about the power outage. That is one cool cloud photo though.
Thank you. π
OH, send that photo to the Cloud Appreciation Society….they will publish it I am sure!!! We subscribe to it but you do not have to to get a photo published.
I tried, but couldn’t find where to send it. XO
