Late this afternoon it kept getting darker and darker and then all hell broke loose with high winds and vertical rain. I just opened my back door and zoomed in on my bed of Hollyhocks as the wind blew them at times almost to the ground. There's a few Sunflowers in the lower left right that were bending down pretty far too. Click the photo for a larger view.
In town our Wendy's sign blew over, as did a bunch of trees and utility poles. No injuries to report. We survived another storm. It seems like we have a lot of stormy days this time of year. That's central Illinois for 'ya!
That empty trellis is the home of my Passion Flower Vines, which are only about six inches tall right now.
