I so absolutely adore thunderstorms.
18 July 2006
A couple of degrees hotter still. But around 10:00PM, with lightning, thunder, and the works, a cold front finally rolled in. I stepped outside, into the rain, for a minute. Then ducked back in for an umbrella and stood out on my roof with the sound of water and the sky lighting up around me. (I'm in a three storey canyon between twin six storey buildings, so I felt safe enough.) And just stood there. In awe of one of nature's simplest but most incredible displays.
