Stormy Weather Pictures in Art and Design
Meteorology fascinates some of us to the point that we make a hobby or even a vocation of it.
Artists and photographers are drawn by the power of nature exhibited in extreme weather like hurricanes, tornadoes, thunder storms, and even floods. The artists of Zazzle are no exception. You'll find some powerful images there of severe weather, and soulful images produced in its aftermath.
I am pleased to present a few selected images of weather that you'll find on Zazzle. These images, from independent artists can end up on your wall, or on any one of a number of everyday items that might appeal to you. Enjoy browsing the ones I've collected here. If you think you might like to have one of them, just click on the picture to find out more about it.

True Heroes
Among the true Heroes of The Storms, natural disasters, and other life threatening situations are the rescue swimmers of the Coast Guard.

Interesting side note: Palm trees are better at surviving hurricanes than oak trees. They are more flexible, bending and swaying with the wind. Though there are more palms than oaks in Florida, after a storm, you will see more downed, uprooted, and severely damaged oaks than palms, which simply shed a few fronds.
Weather in Landscapes
Throughout the ages, landscapes have been a popular theme for artists, and weather often has played a big part in those landscapes. According to Wikipedia:"Landscape art is a term that covers the depiction of natural scenery such as mountains, valleys, trees, rivers, and forests, and especially art where the main subject is a wide view . . . Sky is almost always included in the view, and weather is often an element of the composition."
For example, notice the sky in "View of Toledo"(c. 1595 - 1600) by the famous Spanish Renaissance painter, El Greco.
In the modern age, photography has opened up a whole new world of weather art, like some of the examples you are seeing on this page.

IMPORTANT REMINDER
There's been a great deal of severe weather lately, and as beautiful as angry skies can be, they are also a real threat. Severe weather should always be taken seriously.
Is your family's disaster plan up to date? Do you have emergency supplies?
Please don't assume "It can't happen to me."

- I'm a huge fan of Storms, if its just a plain lightning/thunder storm I'll be outside on the bench watching the storm here and there, depends on the severity of the storm = ] I grew up in Tornado Alley pretty much (Galva, Illinois) So I'm not new to storms = ]
