Thunderstorms

One of the great things about summer are the thunderstorms that we get in our area.  One minute the sky is bright and blue, but in the distance you can see the dark, thunderous clouds looming in.  Slowly they creep, turning light into darkness.  The winds pick up and you can smell the crisp storm in the air.  Big, fat pellets of rain come slamming down, until its one gigantic sheet; an electric bolt of ligtening cracks, illuminating the sky followed closey by a thunderous roar.  And in a heartbeat, the storm has passed, leaving a calm surrender.



Look at how dark it is!


Rain coming down in sheets.
