Storm Clouds in Western Kentucky Early June

While Onyx and I were down in western Kentucky a few weeks ago helping the folks at Clement Mineral Museum with their annual show and dig, we ran into some neat looking clouds of an approaching storm as we were driving back to the hotel from Marion. We were just north of Eddyville and just a few miles from the hotel when the clouds started turning colors, going from a dark blue and grey to a light blue in the middle…never seen that before….the farmers along Hwy 641 were prob wondering about me turning around several times and stopping to take photos of the clouds….
