Tremendous monsoonal thunderstorms ravaged Zion National Park today, closing the main road thru the park due to rock slides. But as with any storm, the aftermath can be delightful.

THE GOOD
THE UGLY
The streets of nearby Springdale were covered with mud.
Menacing clouds approached later in the night.
Those clouds in the last image are gorgeous in their foreshadowing.
Wonderful images to document the contrasting sides of a big storm. Zion is such a beautiful place…(Suzanne)
Your photos are always amazing.
Lovely photos. I could smell the desert rain and it reminds me of how delicious the desert is during and after a rainstorm. .the heat washed away.
Those clouds in the last photo are so unusual looking.
The mammatus clouds at the end are one of those rare sight that always inspire awe. Great shots of what storms in arid regions can do.
I’m glad you mentioned mammatus clouds, didn’t know that!
They generally foretell a strong storm, so while beautiful, not something we like to see coming at us!
Your work is breathtaking!
Thanks Anne!
