I have recently stumbled onto this natural phenomenon, which has absolutely BLOWN my mind. I hope you all find this as spectacular as I do! The Dirty Thunderstorm -A dirty thunderstorm is a weather phenomenon that occurs when lightning is produced in a volcanic plume. Added spoiler out of courtesy. Enjoy! + Show Spoiler + ![[image loading]](http://i40.tinypic.com/iy26pf.jpg) ![[image loading]](http://i41.tinypic.com/173jno.jpg) ![[image loading]](http://i40.tinypic.com/2e6g30y.jpg) ![[image loading]](http://i43.tinypic.com/fw5kw.jpg) ![[image loading]](http://www.cracked.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2008/12/lightningcano1.jpg) ![[image loading]](http://static.zooomr.com/images/7160511_09911f6b46_o.jpg) Does anyone else find this as stunning as I do?   | ||

Just when you think Earth can't surprise you any more, a lightning storm forms out of a volcanic plume. That's just amazing, I'm sure it would be so incredibly intense to see in real life. The world is just awesome. And yeah, I feel the same way. Earth is so amazing, it will never, ever, cease to blow my mind. I was driving to my girlfriends house last night through the country, and I couldn't stop looking out the window and just admiring nature's beauty! /earth fanboy off | ||
