Yesterday morning and all last night there were the most incredible storms. I am hoping that they continue because, although they make it hard to do anything, they are very exciting and very different from home. The rain pours down, the thunder is right overhead and almost constant, the lightning could give you a seizure with its frequency and the wind blows so that the rain doesn't hit the puddles outside in any kind of downward motion, it comes in sheets flying in every which direction. One thunder strike was so close that I jumped out of my skin. And they are so loud that some of the car alarms in the parking lot go off when they s0und.
It is fantastic!!!! I can hardly imagine what they are like on the edge of the country where the storms are coming off the ocean. Typhoon warnings across the country. Very fun.
