DENVER -- Severe weather is pretty prevalent in June.

The morning can start off beautifully, with sun and clear blue skies. But by the afternoon, dark clouds can loom on the horizon and before we know it, we are in the middle of a thunderstorm -- complete with rain, hail, thunder and sometimes, tornadoes.

So what is the weather like where you live? Upload your picture using the form below.

In the photo caption field, be sure to tell us when and where you took the photo.

PHOTOGRAPHY TIPS

When taking a weather picture, try getting about 40 percent terrain and 60 percent sky as your subject.

Please rotate your photos to the proper orientation before uploading. Photos on their side will not be accepted in the slideshow.

Try taking pictures with a horizontal orientation instead of a vertical orientation. Think of your television set, if this is hard to visualize.

In order to get a vertical picture on television we have to stretch it to fit the screen. In most cases, this distorts the subject. You are still welcome to upload pictures with a vertical orientation, but we might not be able to make it work for television.

The best size to upload is 640x480 pixels.
