Heavy weather pictures and videos

I really enjoy storms, heavy weather, and BFS and after browsing the forum for awhile I haven't seen a heavy weather picture or video thread (correct me if I'm wrong) so I thought I'd start one. To start out here are a few pictures of a nor'easter at Wrightsville Beach, NC.

Just a couple of weeks back going through a narrows here in Vancouver. Weather wasn't bad but the sea was..
