Got a link or source for those pics? I’d love to see them just for grits and shiggles.

Do a Bing Image search on "tornado sucked up rainbow." As far as the lightning one goes...it was taken by a local person after some severe storms moved through the area. The number one thing I caught flack for was telling everyone it was straight line winds and not a tornado. It was what we call a "bow echo" in the weather biz and I looked at all the data (velocities and reflectivity of the radar) to make sure there was no rotation. But...for some reason...when many people have severe weather wind damage they always want to blame it on a tornado.

Anyway...I tried to give the person who took it the benefit of the doubt...that it was a pic of lightning in which the camera was shaking and it made a swirling pattern.

I'll try to find it and will send you the FB link in a PM.
