In this picture you can see how much rain we were getting in this storm.  The rain started to collect into a puddle in my grandma's driveway. 

This is a picture of nimbostratus clouds that brought a storm to the Olney City Pool one morning. 

In this picture you see those nimbostratus clouds clouds taking all of the rain away from the Olney baseball fields. 
This picture is of the sun setting on a pretty much clear sky.  There are a few altocumulus clouds on the right side of the picture.
This is a video of our first storm to pop up in Olney after our month long drought.  If you look at the concrete you can see how the wind was starting to blow harder and a little bit sideways.  Also, if you look at the pool you can see that the rain was coming down really hard.  If my camera wouldn't have died I would have gotten a video of the lightning storm that happened.  The pool got stuck by lightning twice.  This video was taken a the Olney City pool. 
By looking at these clouds you can tell that a storm is approaching Ellis Park in Henderson, KY.  

These nimbostratus clouds are moving over Ellis Park.  They brought some rain, but didn't stop the horses from racing that day. 
This picture shows you what a cumulus congestus cloud looks like.  It brought a little bit of heavy rain into Ellis Park, but it didn't last too long. 


In this picture you can see a cumulus congestus cloud that the sun is brightening up from it setting.  This picture was taken at the Olney baseball fields. 

This picture was taken at the Olney City pool after closing hours.  These types of clouds are called Altostratus because the setting sun brightens the clouds near the horizon, but the gray appearance remains elsewhere. 

This picture is of a puffy cumulus cloud.  It was taken at the Olney City pool. 

In this picture that was taken at the Olney baseball fields you can see stratocumlus clouds.

This picture of a stratocumlus cloud was taken on my road on my way home. 

This stratocumlus cloud was taken at my dad's office in downtown Olney before a small strom hit. 

This picture was also taken at my dad's office.  These stratocumlus clouds were the ending result of that small storm. 

In this picture you can see nimbostratus clouds and the rain coming down.  Unfortunately we didn't get any rain that morning at the Olney City pool.  It moved right past us. 
This is a video of fog raising off my pond at my house.  It was very hot out that day and after a small rain shower went through it cooled off and fog lifted off my pond. 
This is a picture of a storm cloud that was taken at the baseball field in Olney. It is the second storm to roll in after our long drought.


This picture was taken on the backside of my house.  In it is a small stratocumlus cloud. 

These stratocumlus clouds were taken on my pond dam.  In this picture you can tell that these clouds are fairly low. 

In this picture that was taken at my house you can see a good batch of fair weather cumulus clouds, also called cumulus humilis clouds. 

This picture was taken in an airplane when I was on my way to Las Vegas.  These clouds are a small patch of  altocumulus clouds.   
This is a video of heat lightning happening in the distance.  I took this video when I was on my way home from Evansville, IN.  I was actually on exit 26B to be exact.
