Lone Solstice Thunderstorm

Walking outside this evening to walk the dogs, I was treated to a beautiful thunderstorm in the distance, peaking over the trees and just tall enough to catch the last rays on the longest day of the year. The storm was one of the few to form over the Metro Atlanta area today, one with temperatures in the mid-90s. I love the contrast between the darkening evening sky and the bright cumulonimbus tower reaching over 25K feet. The pictures don't do it justice.

The Radar Image. The thunderstorm was to my Southwest and was moving quickly to the West.
