When his classmates at primary school watched cartoons, he watched the weather report every night. In high school, he read plenty of books about the weather and also studied meteorology (气象学).

The photo captured clouds that gave rise to a tornado (龙卷风). “I still remember how excited I was. While taking the photo, I couldn’t control myself and kept screaming,” he says, adding that the picture has become famous on the Internet.

A storm may be beautiful when nature shows its power. But it can bring disasters.
