I had limited luck in my quest to shoot lightning today. I did however get to see this interesting rotating thunder cell over what appears to be the area from Lynn to Marblehead. These photos coincided with a tornado warning the National Weather Service issued for the Swampscott area. I snapped these photos from near the Black Falcon terminal in South Boston. I’m hoping one of our great area meteorologists might be able to identify what”s going on here. These photos were taken around 2:10pm. The last photo, of lightning with the small plane, was snapped about 20 minutes prior to the cloud photos.
