Just amazing.

I got a wall cloud in the Sierras that later touched down as a tornado (very rare here) elsewhere, thank goodness (for me)
And there was this thunderstorm when the propane truck was coming for a refill.

Yes, we capture those amazing moments.

You seem to have the "sixth sense" that alerts to wild and crazy things going on outdoors.

Like some other photos, it has a "painting" look about it, probably due to the colors, and the extreme low probability of it happening. (and the really neat composition)

BUT YOU GOT IT!
Thanks, this is awesome stuff.
