Photo: Mike Oblinski
This is another photograph of an absolutely colossal and gorgeous supercell storm. It was taken outside of Booker, Texas back in 2013 by storm chaser Mike Oblinski. If you didn’t know any better, you could easily mistake this storm for the opening of a black hole or wormhole straight out of the movie Interstellar. Being even this far away in order to take this photograph must have been super intense considering the noise of the thunder and the force of the wind coming from such a gigantic storm. The one streak of lightening helps to remind you that this is a storm and not some cataclysmic event, although seeing it up close you might think it was.
