Despite having lived in tornado alley for much of our lives I have not actually put eyes on a funnel cloud myself until yesterday. As a summer storm rolled past I brought the children inside and checked the sky, keeping one patch of troublesome-looking clouds in view. Sure enough a small funnel grew and began to rotate. It was absorbed into the bigger clouds and then grew again only to break up entirely as the system moved east and over the prairie. Here is a little glimpse:

Ooh, that is sooooo cool…from afar.
