    Scene notes:

    Thunderstorm – content warning for epilepsy. A dangerous, approaching nighttime thunderstorm with lightning illuminating the thundercloud from within.

    … by lightning and stationary – content warning for epilepsy. The thunderstorm of the night in the Gulf of Mexico off the coast of Florida has no wind behind it to come onshore or make any other direction- this night storm has both cloud-to-cloud and cloud-to-ground lightning, with strikes shown, the flashes outlining and silhouetting parts of the storm, including the anvil shape of the nimbus cloud.

    Scene notes:

    This clip is illustrative of the under lighting that happens after the sun has set. From the altitude of the clouds, the light is still briefly shining on them, and the clouds are turned pink and red with oranges in between, and different levels of clouds are shown to move in differing directions according to the winds at those altitudes.

    … clifftops, dance over a lone tree. Water vapor, condensed by the extra wind as it rides over peaks. It will not behave in the way a cloud does without the sharp differences of the Earth. The snowy mountain peak has many aiguilles and towers, and the top edges are cornices and snow ridges. A large fluting spans the height of the peak to the base. At right, the fall-colored red-yellow leaves on the main tree quiver slightly in the breeze that pushes the cloud shadows slowly overhead and the landscape. The

    Scene notes:

    From the viewpoint on the hill, the valley and lake is seen below. While nine-tenths of the frame is composed of the sky’s clouds and glowing on distant mountains. Two layers of clouds are present, a low-level and medium-level. On the medium level, the glow of light supplements the direct under-lighting on it. Pinks, oranges, and reds play out on the sky as the sun peaks out one last time for the day in 2005. The lower-level clouds moves towards the camera.

    Scene notes:

    Precipitation and high wind; this Nimbus is not a violent one, but is dense and dark where it has its rain, like usual for a storm cloud. Rain is diffusing the glowing light below it, and the underside of the storm is lit from the ambient glow.

    10 seconds and 13 frames.
