Tuesday evening's (May 13) gusty evening thunderstorms sweep the area producing lightning, 50+ m.p.h. gusts and rainbows
A big THANK YOU to those of you who took the time to e-mail us shots of Tuesday
evening's gusty showers and thunderstorms--and the rainbows which followed. Low
angle sunlight interacting with these storms provides a great environment for rainbows
and we've been treated to more than our fair share in recent weeks. Please check out
these photos from folks all over the Chicago metro area! We love receiving your
weather photos! Many thanks to all who took the time to send them along!
