I only have weather stuff, but I know you guys don't mind that, so...

Incredible up close 2008 Polish tornado video, puts some of the US stuff to shame...

and

The video from my avatar...a beautiful combination of Mother Natures beauty...


My favorite Reed Timmer/TVN vid...
One thing I love about the way Reed videos Tornadoes is how he likes to show the entire structure from cloud to ground. This one got incredibly close!


Beautiful Mesocyclone (watch with the sound on, sums up the beauty of Thunderstorms)


And this isn't YouTube, but still some of the most incredible Tornado video I've ever seen. More extreme than a lot of the TVN stuff. A chaser by the name of Tornado Tim driving through the suburbs as a Tornado rips through town. (keep an eye out when he pulls over and the Tornado passes him, sending debris flying everywhere in the process, amazing!)

Good stuff, Judd :applause: I hope those poor people on the bus in Poland were ok though, poor things, they were so scared! I reckon that one with Reed and poor Joel is an example of the real reason Joel's not chasing with Reed anymore :laughing: Poor Joel! Had to laugh at the end, "Hey Joel! Joel? Did we put a tape in here?" LMAO

The Beautiful Mesocyclone is... well, just beautiful. It looks like it's dancing to the music, absolutely spellbinding to watch. Thank you so much for sharing that.

Arguably one of the most enigmatic and mysterious looking sky events are the Aurora.
Had the pleasure of witnessing the northern lights about 6 years ago in the far north of scotland, could have sat there for hours were it not for the sub zero temps.

Here's some lovely timelapse from Norway.

Here's a very cool clip - it's from Richard Hammond's (Top Gear) side show called 'Invisible Worlds'

Some stunning footage of 'reverse lightning' from the US. Truly stunning!

Enjoy

A fan made clip of Some pictures but together into a clip of some pretty amazing supercells... even 1 or 2 from Aus made it on there from Anthony Cornelius.



That reverse lightning in slow motion is incredible! I've only ever seen reverse lightning once in a storm... It happened on a storm at sunrise. And was the same deal, went up from a radio tower into the cloud base....
