Remarks & Notes

WARNING! The scanner is alive with warnings from a storm that would spawn 6 tornadoes and dump 4-8" of rain in the area. We would eventually take refuge in a concrete farm tunnel under the Highway until the storm subsided. Meanwhile, CNW 8531 makes for excellent subject matter. A digital camera would have been nice here as I shot this at f1.8 @1/60 on Kodachrome 64.
