I get to see a big chunk of sky in my back yard so I get to see lots
of strange cloud formations. Most are quite beautiful but sometimes they look downright evil. This was last week at 4:30 PM, lots of very furious lightening and thunder but this time very little rain... one minute the sun was shining, the next it was as dark as a very dark night, very eerie: http://i44.tinypic.com/2646zcz.jpg |

Fog is prevalent in coastal New England but you don't often see it coming like that pic. When living up there, there were a few times when I would have to pull off the road for a few minutes. The fog was so heavy, you literally could not see beyond the hood of your car. Didn't last but a few minutes that bad though. G. |

Stopping is a good way to get hit from behind, and going is a good way to hit someone. Lose/lose. Even pulling over, if someone behind you sees your tail lights, they might think that's the way to go. Fog/driving, a scary mix. nancy |

If I did it now, I would pull over then get out of the car and stand well away from it. G. |

Many many years ago we took a family trip to Cape Cod, and one day we drove up toward Provincetown for whale watching. The fog was so thick that day they canceled the boat trip and the fog didn't lift until well into late afternoon. I'd never seen anything like that before. We stopped at one of the national park beaches, one where you have to walk down a million steps to get to the sand, and from up there the ocean and beach were completely obscured. -- CAPSLOCK–Preventing Login Since 1980. |

Seems it is called 'Thundersnow'! I've only experienced thundersnow a few times, but it's eery. Thinking about what causes thunder and lightning being hot and cold air masses colliding, it's strange to see heavy snow with that going on. -- CAPSLOCK–Preventing Login Since 1980. |

Fog is common in Chicago, it is the varying temps of the lake, etc... Oft-times it will be sunny *and* foggy... Great Lakes weather is *never* boring, that's fer sure... ;-) -- Best Greg |

Sheldon posts a nice picture of some clouds and it turns into a ****ing match about who's the biggest authority on fog banks and storm clouds. *yawn* |
