So, What exactly is a microburst?
Since I am not much of a weather guy (as a matter of fact, I could care less what the weather does)....I have no clue...but I know one thing....its one cool weather phenomenon....it kinda, sorta looks like Mother Nature's version of an atomic bomb.
How do I know?
How nice of you to ask....
Well, I watched one last week...it was ahead if me as I drive my way to work....
This is The Smithsonian's dramatization of an airplane attempting to fly through a microburst.

And a photo of the accompanying lightning (that typically coincides with the fast moving winds):
