Now that's how you catch an approaching storm. Just slap the camera on a tripod and let the storm come to you without all the wagging around of the camera that so many folk's do. Excellent job.

AMEN to that.

Completely awesome and what I especially like about this video is that the uploader let's the scene do the talking, no hysterics like omg or shouting and wailing or screaming or crying etc, brilliant job love it 😊

Man, that is a beautiful storm! I would like to see you make a nature video like this. Also, the view of the storm is wondrously unique as you don't see many people filming this high up. Thanks for taking the time, and for the 1080p quality, too!

Yes, Monty, I DID enjoy this video!! The footage is BREATHTAKING!!!! No one could have topped this!!!

This is one of the coolest thunderstorm videos I've seen

Really nice video. I like how it's kind of split in two, the lower half showing our presence on this planet and the upper half showing natures presence. As the city gradually disappears in the rain the greater presence is shown. That might sound weird, but that's how it looked through my eyes. Nature is awesome, thank you Dr.

I saw a severe thunderstorm one time so intense it turned the clouds purple and pink. Unbelievable lightning. However that wasn't the worst. Summer 1995 Chandler, AZ the sky turned black as pitch. Later that night we had tornado warnings

That's called Scattering, it only happens with heavy storms

It's always incredible the storms the Minneapolis area can produce!

I live in Minneapolis and will be recording more weather events this season. Thanks for commenting.

I love that view and how you are watching the storm approach. I love storms and I wish I got more where I live.

This was a severe thunderstorm in Minneapolis.very good video shot of the approaching storm going over the city skyline.

I remember a storm years ago when I was a child in the early morning where you could literally feel the electricity. The sky was a sulphur yellow and there was a faint smell of ozone. Haven't witnessed anything like that since. Just love watching storms, always fascinates me.

That description, sounds like common post-May T-storms that are super strong! The post-May T-storms while usually no hail, tend to have more strong lightning bolts than what I often see before June. We tend to get very loud ones in June, July and August. August is too well known for super loud ones! 🤣

Good video, my 7 year old loved it

It's incredible how quickly it comes in! Great video!

Great video! What would've made it an Excellent video is hearing the "clapping" thunder after a lot of that lightning!

Fantastic. Paradise for Thunderstorm-freaks

I'm watching this video of a thunderstorm while there's a thunderstorm raging outdoors. However, your thunderstorm was better.

Thank you much, papo. It's nice when the weather cooperates!

Nice video! WOW! I'd love this view! Especially to watch thunderstorms, like this one! :D

I was once videotaping a thunderstorm right above my house, but I was inside my house, and it ruined my phone. Any video I took after that just sounded like static. But I love storms and I love this video seeing it approaching the camcorder and all. Super cool, thanks for uploading.(:

Minneapolis disappears quite frequently. For me, the dynamics of weather is always interesting.

Could not have picked a better view of this one...bravo sir

I'm looking forward to this year's season. Thanks, Blauwhoed.

Thanks. I'm sure if I was there watching it in person, I probably wouldn't think it was so peaceful. :-)

love how it slowy covers the city

it's that time of year! thanks, mrsmars.

That was a really good storm even though it was only a little one (I usually call big ones, ones that last more then an hour). Reminds me of the first storms of the wet season here in Australia where right before the monsoon we would get these huge storms roll in as well as tons upon tons of insanity driving humidity.

Wow thats so cool how the clouds just keeping moving right and then it just covers the while city nice video!!!

Love these Storm visuals. Gives you a totally different perspective when seen from a higher vantage point, rather than at ground level.

Once upon a time i was seriously scared of storms...fast foward many years later, I'm disappointed by severe storm warnings that doesn't add up, the end! BTW this looks great!

When I was on holiday last year, there was a massive storm just over the coast of where I was and it was bright purple and pink, it was amazing

Only getting this video in my recommendations 8 years after it came out. Great capture of the approaching storm, tho.

thers a thunder storm right now but i love thunderstorms!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I remember this day. I was eating dinner outside my front porch and this storm randomly came.

well, that did what it said on the tin... cheers for posting it :) i do LOVE a good thunderstorm! was great to watch almost the whole thing from beginning to end from such a good vantage point. i could do that for hours on end. swooooon...

great job what a vid capture 👊👊👌

"A Mellonripe Production" lmao XD Thx for the upload :)

May 29, 2012, widespread hail in Vermont. I was wondering if it was just a T-storm like usual, when at Woodbury in Springfield, Vermont, when I saw a lightning bolt and heard thunder, but after the guy I was with, in the late-1990s GM 2500 with the 350 V8 went towards the mini plaza and got next to the old McDonald's, (it was torn down in 2013 and replaced with an entirely new McDonald's) it was hailing! But it was small hail. OK, 6 minutes into this video, sounds like June 5, 2010 in New England, which had no hail, TMK, but the lightning bolts were nothing to underestimate! That day was known for repeated lightning bolts, especially what KZreadr, "LuvsTstormTapes" got in far-south New England! I got similar in Springfield, Vermont and got the borrowed Canon PowerShot A530 out, which was from 2007. It only does SD, but the quality is stunning!

That is insane. i've seen thunder and lightning for what seems like nonstop but this is really nonstop.!

glad you enjoyed it.

Awesome vid

This happened last night in England!!

OMG What a awesome storm, and it's raining and blowing and thunder and lightning.

Great footage

Love a good storm 😊 unfortunately, we don't even get small storms 😩

Where do u live

Kind of wish we had storms like that here in Las Vegas, we never get them anymore :(

Greetings from Spain! Sorry for my bad English. I am fond of meteorology for 22 years now. A couple of questions: - What values you measure dewpoint when there are thunderstorm? -And what CAPE value?

I live in Wisconsin and we get around 20-25 tornadoes a year and some pretty wicked storms. Last year around 5am I believe it was in July I was woken up cause it was so bright out, the sky was yellow and it was so still outside there was a huge storm moving in it was such an awesome thing to see! Another time when I was little I remember being outside and it was windy out and hot an humid then the wind stopped and the sky turned pea green.

Thanks, Bat.

loved the video

Thank you! In the Wikipedia I read that in July 2005 was measured in the state of Minnesota a dew point of 86 º F. It's really incredible.

very good film

You should definitely speed this wicked footage up, then add a new video to KZread as a timelapse video! it would look awesome!

I really appreciate a great storm, I also appreciate a great camera man.. nice video.

Thanks, shauntbarry. We've had tornadoes hit Minneapolis, but not the downtown area(that I'm aware of).

It is so nice to hear and see this.

the magic of independent cam cording, Briony.

Almost every afternoon in Florida during the summer. Except we get more lightning.

That's what you call a fabulous thunderstorm

We don't see these kinds of storms in the UK. Would really like to see one though! Great video.....love it!!! :)

I have always disliked thunderstorms. I can tolerate rain but never rain with thunder and lightning. That being said - this video was actually quite peaceful to watch and very relaxing.

Thanks for commenting. Nice to hear from the UK.

Epic thunderstorm. Was there blue sky on the right in the distance?

Thanks, TheBaza1980

Do you live there? If anymore storms come along you should record it, amazing footage!

This is how you should always record your videos... good work on this 1 ...:D

Thunderstorm with beautiful structure occurring on Pentecost Sunday.

Thanks. I'll consider that.

I LOVE thunder and lightening so righteous

Hi. Are you in Devon area by any chance as we had a storm about 6pm and it was going on for 30 minutes to 1 hour then started again a few hours later.

5:28-8:49-14:43-18:57. Look how it changes. It's cool

rain and wimbledon seem to go together, but now that you mention it, GBR and rain seem to go together. actually, i just got out of bed when i read your comment and thought you were talking 36 hours rather than minutes.

that's quite a unique reaction, Louie.

One of the largest storms I've seen was outside of Delaware a week ago. Lasted 2 hours and started at around 1am

June 27th and 28th were crazy for storms. I seen a severe storm that flooded Belfast and a strong gust front-type thunderstorm with a lot of CG's, although I was in Ireland and didn't get as much activity. Although few in England near Blackpool and one at sea from Scotland on the 4th and 5th of July where the biggest I have seen all year.

this still is a favorite of mine to watch.

Wow. I'd love to witness a storm like that! One day... I'm surprised by how many people there are still driving around in their cars, surely you'd avoid the roads?! Does Minnesota get a lot of storms like that? It's not a state I'd usually associate with crazy weather, but then my knowledge of states is a bit ropey at the best of times.

+Lydia Coutts We've had an exceptionally nice summer and fall. I'm not much of a winter person and unfortunately that season is too long for me. We do have tornados up this far, so when BIG weather moves in, it's best to head for shelter.

Monty Mellonripe Interesting, I didn't realise there were tornados that far north. I'm in Scotland and we don't get any dramatic weather, having the standard British temperate climate. A little excitement would be nice once in a while! That said, I realise the terrible devastation that extreme weather can wreak, so in that respect we are very lucky.

stay tuned sean; i try to camcord the more potent storms. there should be some good ones coming up.

Normally we do, although the ones on the 28th June were big! I had one at 3:30am with lightning every 3 seconds, and later in the day other parts of the country had lightning more than every second in the strongest storm, and a a couple tornadoes and hail upto 9cm!
