r W a r r i o r . N e t August 26th, 2003, High Wind Thunderstorm |
 |
||||||||||||||||
| This was a fairly significant
thunderstorm that brought a wide spread
amount of high winds. I was at work when the main line (gust
frong) moved through, so I had limited time to go out and shoot
images. I took these from the nearby 7 story parking garage in
Bethesda, Maryland. Shortly there after I was able to depart work
and headed home, were there was reports of trees down. I found a
few blocked roads not far from my home. These photos were taken
in the Gaithersburg/Montgomery Village area of Montgomery County,
Maryland.
