Around 2pm? It was just beginning to drizzle and there was the beginning of a funnel cloud in the sky with about 1/4 of a tornado tail descending from the clouds.
Never seen anything like that up close, rather unsettling! Anyone else scope that out? I was on my way into the Y but was captivated by it for a few minutes. Wish I had my digi cam.

That was about 30 seconds before we got totally poured on.

Nice pic!
then we sat on the stoop and watched the rain come in.
It definitely looked pretty ominous, but I've got no idea what the beginnings of a tornado looks like. Was that even close, or just a pocket of pressure doing weird things to the clouds?
It looks a bit like a similar half-funnel thing I saw once (not here), except that it was much lighter out yesterday than when I've thought a tornado was descending upon me. Who knows what that was! What freaky weather this weekend!
