Yeah, I really did jump this morning when a really loud thunder clap blasted above my mobile home at about 5am
Had I been awake it wouldn't have bothered me but that's no way to wake up ....... I think I might have been having a good dream for once but now I can't remember
Well, it rained really hard from just before 5am til about 5:30am then seemed to calm down but it's been sprinklin since then and just a few minutes ago it start to rain lightly again but now it's calm again.
I found a shot I took of the Franklin Mountains years ago, I was heading home from Las Cruces so the camera is facing east. The mountain ranges are really long in these here parts with small breaks between the ranges, this area has also been developed since I took this shot. Progress? Not really, more like destruction.
These have more color to them then the Organs do.

Loud sudden noises tend to make me jump, too.
There was a sever weather warning including possible tornadoes issued yesterday evening, but I didn't recognize the area they specified. It did rain here last night, and I was vaguely aware of lightning at one point, but it didn't really disturb my sleep.
There wasn't any mention of tornadoes on the morning news.

I do hope you don't get any tornadoes, those things scare the bageeezaas outta me.

@rebelann On a later newscast, there was something about two possible tornadoes last night, but again, I wasn't paying too much attention, so don't know where they touched down. Not in my yard, anyway.

I've lived here since 1959 and have never even heard of a tornado warning around here @BarBaraPrz

Development is inevitable. People have to be housed somewhere.
