Sudden Storm

A storm rolled in this evening. Well, rolled around is more like it. Despite all the rolling thunder, we received only a sprinkling of rain. The following pictures were taken within a few minutes of each other.

Pretty photos. We heard a bit of rumbling and saw dark clouds but nothing affected us here. Perhaps a sprinkle or two was all.
