Default Neat Thunderstorm Photo

I thought I would share this photo a fellow pilot from my airline took today. It was taken while flying into EWR (Newark). It's days like this that you hope your radar is in good working order.

He should submit that photo to the AOPA's photo contest -- they have a weather category.

Very cool picture!
