We were 3 hours from our destination of a campground near Rapid City SD when we got caught in a storm. The sky overlooking the rolling hills looked amazing. The clouds were bright with white, and green colours, but the sky was getting dark. There wasn't too much green in the clouds, but enough to make lissa nervous. Soon enough the rain came, then the storm became violent. All traffic stopped and the car was rocking from the winds. The bikers had it the worst, they were hiding behind their bikes trying to withstand the 80 ml/hr winds with rain blowing sideways. Thank-fully there was an exit very close and we got under a bridge and waited for the storm to pass. It probably lasted one hour. Once the storm passed we realized we were in a little town of 284 people and the only gas station closed up shop for the night from the storm. We ended up staying in a little motel and we will leave early in the morning for MOUNT RUSHMORE!
This is the only footage we got during the storm (please click on this link):

Here's some more cool pictures from after the storm from our Motel room.
