There were huge thunderstorms going through the area on the last day I was in Indiana. I do admit they have spectacular cloud formations. When the air is violently unstable, the texture of the clouds can be almost errotic.

Here you can see a front moving in. This was the outer edge of what proved to be a fairly nasty weather system.

We were heading out to a restaurant when I snapped this one of clouds over the barn. I've only seen this form of pillus cloud on rare occasions in the west, usually in small patches. These were on the sides of towering thunderheads.

Those clouds evolved into these shapes. They looked like raised arms.

Still changing...

Later they started to resemble the abs and pects of some enormous torso. Appropriate, since that's essentially what we spent the last week working on (the werewolf).

I'm fascinated by weather: I could have looked at the changing shapes for hours.
