In Australia even the clouds are dangerous.

Used to get that sort of thing over Houston when I was a kid, my favorite time of year.

They're here

I see this kind of stuff all the time during summer here, thunderstorms are pretty entertaining.

I take it this weather is unusual for brisbane?

Happens in Nebraska too. Always fun to watch.

They have lightning just not normally 30,000 strikes in one storm.

Pffft. You work for years trying to be a decent person, get married, raise a couple of kids. What kind of recognition do you get? Yeah, nothing.


But you carnally molest just one wallaby and the ancient Gods go crazy and attack the whole city.

It just ain't fair.

We really need an Awesome tab around here.

Ah! Brisbane! HOMESICKNESS.

That's fairly not-uncommon for anything north of Grafton really, but Brisbane is interesting because of the trap-and-funnel effect of the Great Dividing Range, and Moreton and North Stradbroke islands. Good times.

Rather fond of this display myself (short, but SWEET). (new window)

Meh.

In Iowa in the summertime that's called "partly cloudy with a chance of a light drizzle."

Uh oh... cue the meteorological tough guys...

If I was there I would have totally kicked that lightning's ass. You don't go passing charges around MY neighborhood.

...at Tanagra.

Can you hear the thunder? You better run, you better take cover...

That's Zeusie vs. Thorie, ya pelican.

Holy crap that was awesome.

I thought this was going to be a fight between a fat wog and a skinnier wog

...when the walls fell.

Believe me, I was looking for the "Holy Crap" tag.

I have a hard time believing that's real.

Fake.

I mean... the video isn't on that site, but the fact that you can't comment on the liveleak video almost guarantees it's one of the ads that they get money to post, and it fits in with the other videos they have there.
