Tonight's is a bit of a cheat, but it brought me so much joy tonight that I knew I had to make it today's good thing. For anybody not from Seattle, you may not know that we don't get very impressive thunder and lightning storms over here. I don't know why, but we usually get very flimsy and short thunder storms. But tonight, Thor has been having a great time over our skies, and for about an hour now I have been subjected to the largest, loudest, longest thunderstorm of my entire life! Our lights started flickering about 45 minutes before it started, and I was in the shower when the thunder began. We're on the top floor and I could hear it rumbling and the lights flickered again. I hoped the lights wouldn't go out in the shower and luckily they didn't!
The rain was coming down like I've never seen it, and for a lifelong Seattleitte, that's saying something! We shut off all the lights, voluntarily, and the tv, and looked out all the windows and even ventured out on our covered porch a bit. We were smart though, don't worry!
Mother Nature provided our city with an amazing show of force that I am still enjoying! I hope everybody was able to make it to safety and sat back and enjoyed the show!
