Clouds circle around as storm builds


This was a look at an interesting circular cloud on Sunday.  The first view was as we were driving home from the north side of Beaumont. and the second was at our house, just moments before the heavy rain started coming down.

Setting sun can't quench boiling mad storm

This was part of the thunderstorm that violently boiled up over our house at sunset yesterday.  The storm dumped about two inches of rain as the daylight faded.

This is a sunset shot taken from a I-10 overpass on the south side of Beaumont. Tropical Storm Cindy probably had a large hand in the color scheme -- tropical systems seem to make sunsets more interesting as the systems approach

So just a couple hours before our pool party this weekend, Linda sees this guy taking a swim and asks me to get him out. Not wanting to hop in I went for the net. He apparently sees what's coming and hops out (guess he got all his laps in and decided to call it a day).
