SmugMug > popular > Weather > Mexican BorderThis "blue" thunderstorm was captured after dark just over the Texas/Mexico border.  It is rare when chasing takes me this far south, but tornadic thunderstorms are probably common in northern Mexico, but the Mexican government does not have the resources to have as impressive nor organized a weather service to help issue watches and warnings in this area.  The color of the bolt has not been altered.  May 28, 2002; 13 seconds at f/8.

SmugMug > popular > Weather > The clouds were so wicked looking with this storm!I stayed and took as many shots as I could before the rains came.I wanted to capture the underside of the clouds as the lightning lit them up.I felt lucky with this shot as two shots later my back-up battery was dead after an all night chase!I have since bought a charger for my vehicle!
