Just another summer afternoon in Southwest Florida when this storm decided to develop. It was more of a rainmaker than anything else.
This picture was taken facing east using the camera from my iPhone.
This picture was taken facing northeast towards Southwest Florida International Airport (RSW). Looks like there was some lowering of the clouds in the distance, but it was just a developing precipitation shaft. At the time the picture was taken, this looked more ominous in real life.
Impressive looking shelf cloud! Of course, there wasn't much to see here except it got pretty breezy. The cool down was a welcome relief after a hot and humid summer day!
Getting on the northbound I-75 on-ramp at Alico Road (Exit 128) to head up to my in-laws house in North Fort Myers.
Rain. That's it. Though, I did hear later on that there was some slight rotation detected on radar about 30 miles south-southeast of me in Naples, FL, but it was very shortlived.
If I didn't have anything else going on that day, I would've headed south to Naples to see what was going on down there. But, I was on a mission to help my in-laws move some stuff into their new house that day.
Enjoy the pics!
Happy Storm Chasing!
