The BIG Storm!

I looked out my bathroom window this morning. It faces west, so I can watch the weather roll in while I'm sudsing up. Silly me, no camera, but all I saw was this large dark triangular (funnel??)-shaped cloud coming up behind the barn. The wind had picked up to a point where we needed to batten down the hatches. I took a pass on the shower to see if we needed to hunker down, and by the time my husband and I secured a few things outside (mostly moving boxes and debris), it was all over. I have to say it was one of the strangest weather occurences I've experienced. I'm not sure if I reacted strangely because of the locale, but it really looked like we were going to get hammered, if not by some serious winds, then by a serious thunderstorm. I had visions of no power, more downed trees. It has been raining all morning, but just a normal shower. The grass needs to be cut again.
