This one is for my mom. She absolutely is terrified and fascinated by tornadoes she is absolutely going to love these photos. They are just fantastic. Mother Nature will never cease to be an amazing and awe inspiring joy to watch. While I will never feel anything but sympathy for the terror and destruction that these storms leave in their path from these photos I can see the reason why my mother is glued to the TV anytime live video of these monsters comes up.
Enjoy, I know my mom will

I am not an expert, but I believe most of these are pictures of meso-cyclones, not tornadoes. I do not know if or how the two may be related.

stunning photos anyway!
