Cumulus Congestus Cloud Timelapse

############################# Video Source: www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rS2GAblsHM

I caught some impressive cumulus congestus clouds passing by Cranberry Lake, on July 27th, 2017. I also had an unexpected visitor that was in the shot for a while. He was talking to the owners of the property, and I didn't want to interrupt the conversation to ask him to move, but after seeing the video, I wish I did, because I don't get many chances to catch these kind of clouds around here. • I love how these clouds look like massive explosions at timelapse speeds, and I guess they are in a way. I'm not sure how they compare to nukes or any explosive, but they're packin' a lot of heat! And since I don't want to leave you hanging, I just looked it up. (I didn't look into the legitimacy of the claim, it was just the first one I saw after a quick google search) Each cumulus cloud contains as much energy as ten Hiroshima-sized atomic bombs which came from here / cloud-index-cumulonimbus • Obviously, this is an estimate, and the energy is probably released much slower and is much less condensed than an atomic bomb. • This timelapse is 546 photos, taken at 6 second intervals, representing just under an hour in real time.
