I would love to watch them roll in from your vantage point! Drink in hand. A joint. Special effects free. Nature in all its glory!

(11,371 posts)Its my other vantage point towards Soldier Field and the lake. There were some good spiderweb lightning streaks on Tuesday, but not in this video.

(6,515 posts)they were playing the White Sox in Chicago. The announcers for the Mets were commenting on it and they kept cutting away from the game as the sky got more dramatic. It was real pretty.

On my drive to the airport, I saw the most amazing sunset that I'll never forget.
It was that amazing. It looked much like these images.
The sun, as it receded in to the horizon, the bottom of the sun disappeared. But what made this one so special was the top of the sun started to disappear as well, showing me, what looked like a 16 : 9 widescreen TV, (Widescreen didn't exist in TV's those days, just using it as a comparison), until it finally disappeared completely. I couldn't stop staring at it.
I haven't seen a sunset like that ever since.
I considered it, a gift from Chicago.
