Looking through the clouds

It was a cloudy morning (March 24). Thunder could be heard from the distant East. No rain here, but pleasantly cool.

I fired up Google Earth on my computer. I wanted to find a nearby town.
What the heck happened here?

Took me a few minutes to realize I was viewing the current weather.
Google Earth updates weather every five minutes.
So it's actually a way of seeing what's coming this way. The service also offers time-lapse views.
