Oh my gosh! You would not believe the terrible storm we had yesterday! It was such a fright!
I happened to look out the window and I saw this very black cloud rolling in from the south. It looked like death! Everything got very dark and then I began to hear the thunder. I had to go downstairs to see the mail man and I warned him to be careful. He said he'd been in and out of rain most of the day in different parts of the city and he had also seen that cloud coming in.
I came back up here and all of a sudden the wind whipped up and blew as hard as it could through my window! It was a cool wind, however, so I let it come to cool me down. And then, very quickly, it began to POUR!
After about 2 minutes, the rain stopped. The wind died down. The clouds rolled away. The sun came out. It was a gorgeous day again.
and Mother Nature laughed.

We did get a good soaking as well but no real storm, I was expecting thunder and lightening.

Yes, very glad. And I was a little surprised that we didn't get just a few minutes of real rain. But it's okay. It will come another day!

The wind is good when it cools me off but not when it blows everything around my apartment! lol We could actually use some rain here, too. But I don't see any rain in our forecast for the next whole week.

The fast, furious storms can be scary. They blow in fast but disappear in a blink.
