I was reluctant to post this pic on DA as I thought the quality was lacking.
DA Aidan, *Wodewose, kind of insisted that I do it.

Well, here it is Aidan, after that Anglo Saxon expression you used, you convinced
me.

I captured this pic from Sunset Beach on Sunday night 10 April 2005 at 20h28. A freak storm of note had
hit Cape Town, conditions were so appalling that the use of my tripod was
impossible, hence the poor quality pic.

If you refer to my earlier submission, Table Mountain at Night, you’ll see the flood
lights lighting up the mountain. These same flood lights can be seen in this storm
pic just below the cloud covering Table Mountain. There are 5 flood lights visible.
This cloud cover, referred to locally as the Cape Doctor, usually occurs in our spring
& summer months, September through to January, brought about by the South East
wind. The North Westerly is normally our rain & storm bearing prevailing winter wind .

I forwarded this pic to our local newspapers and radio station KFM 94,5. DJ Nic
Marais of KFM, posted the pic on their website [link]
he obviously thought it was good enough as well.
Thanks Nic
Thanks Aidan
