Nebraska Sunset After Storm

Last night was my first experience through a Nebraska storm. It poured hail stones the size of three dimensional quarters. Lightening flashed right above and the wind blew from all directions threatening tornadoes to appear at any moment. Ed, the director of ArtFarm, explained to us very calmly, that we should keep a look out for small tornadoes forming, that they can sneak up on you in only 45 seconds, and you need to be ready to fly away, I mean find a low spot near a tree and hunker down tight and small. Luckily, no tornadoes showed up. The storm past, and the sun came out, and this is what it looked like as it settled into the horizon.
