According to www.snopes.com (kinda the internet myth busters), this photograph was actually taken in Florida. The oil rig was added digitally

If the lightning and tornado are real, still a very cool pic.

I've found www.snopes.com to be a very reliable site. It's been around for years. Every time I get one of those stories or pictures through emails or forums that seem to be "not quite right", I usually find the truth at Snopes.

By the way, pointing out another opinion about the picture was in no way meant to be disrespectful to Jay A.

I got the pic from my e-mail. My sister sent it to me. The story that accompanied it seemed reliable. But I guess you can't always believe what you read....or see!

Anytime you get an email like that or a story that sounds too good to be true, check with www.snopes.com. Perfect example...about a year ago I get an email from a friend about a small child with a brain tumor than wants everyone to send him business cards so he can break a world record as a dying wish. I quickly checked "Snopes" and respectfully told my friend he might want to not circulate that email. See link below.
