Beauty after the beast

A beautiful double rainbow could be seen in Casey County following Monday afternoon's severe storms that rolled through the area. This shot was taken near Yosemite with the tip of Green River Christian Church visible in the lower right corner. Even though a tornado warning was issued for the county, Casey received only some minor damage in the Indian Creek Road area in the storm that blew through around 4:30 p.m. Once it crossed into Lincoln County, however, it turned violent, putting down a tornado in McKinney and destroying several homes.
