Found out tonight what a wall cloud looks like

One went right over our house around 8. When I saw the little bit of rotation, I told it to "just keep moving, nothing here to see." Considering emailing the info to the local weather station. Of course, it was too dark to get any decent pictures.

DH was on his way home (he drove into the storm), and he was able to watch tendrils of the cloud come down. I imagine he made pretty good time once he saw the potential for worry.

We're all fine, didn't even get that much rain (.8").

Hope all my Texan peeps are safe and well.

Glad you're safe, and that you get to see what I do on a weekly basis. I think they are rather pretty.

I have never heard of a wall cloud but I can use my imagination. Sounds pretty intense.

That was 2 days before our town was destroyed by a tornado... Clouds can be very scary...
