Sometimes, the sky just wakes up and chooses chaos. From flash floods that nobody saw coming to lightning bolts that look like they’re straight out of a Marvel movie, nature isn't interested in playing nice. It can be dramatic, messy, and—if you’re not the one mopping up afterwards—a little bit mesmerizing. These pictures are proof that when the weather wants to make a statement, it doesn’t bother with subtlety.

#9 Rip My Car
I live in the Pacific Northwest. Wind storm early the other morning. I heard it whistling and thought, “huh - sounds like about a month ago. I wonder if anything bad will happen. Doesn’t sound quite as bad…”
Literally seconds later, CRASH!!, and a car alarm is going off. I said, “that had better not be my car…
It was sad.

#23 Womp Womp For Me
Stupid storm. There’s very little damage anywhere else. I feel picked on. Last time we had a terrible storm the only major damage in the immediate area was our gazebo thing which looked like a crumpled heap. I think god hates me.

#27 My Entire Neighborhood Is Submerged In Flood Water With Raw Sewage In It
My neighborhood Laurel Meadows in Sarasota Florida is completely flooded from Hurricane Debby and the water level is rising day by day despite the storm being over. Many of us are homeless now, cannot access our medications inside our homes, and truly have no idea what to do. Worst of all- it seems like no one knows what is happening to us.

#35 Tennis Ball Size Hail Totaled My F150
Big hail storm rolled through. Totaled my truck. $17k in damages. Pic of the hail was after an hour of sitting in the 90° heat. It was coming through the roof of the building we were sheltering in. There were three car dealerships in the area that lost 100% of their new car inventory.

#39 Car Backseat Got Moldy
I left my windows open one day when it rained, I caught it relatively quick and dried off the panels, etc. I wasn't thinking about the back seat being folded down until today, a month later. I've never seen anything like this, blasted it with vinegar, and wiped it all away. Am I cooked or what?

#46 Lubbock Tornado Blew Trampoline Pole Into Our Roof
We live on the west end of Lubbock and we heard a loud thud from the roof at some point as the high winds from the storm were going by our house. Until they release the path of the tornado I couldn’t tell you for sure how close it got to us. Hail wasn’t too bad in our neighborhood but someone’s trampoline must not have been anchored in and slammed into our roof. I found a few of the poles in the backyard but one definitely stuck in. It could be worse - I’ve seen pictures of nearby houses with their roofs ripped off so I’m grateful but it does suck thinking we were all good and coming out to the living room to find water pouring out of the ceiling.
