Well its sunny out not a cloud in the sky. I am just loggging onto mylot. Then I hear the loudest bang and crash. I jump out of my chair and rain to the window. I thought something bad happened but it was lightning. Still sunny out and no rain. Now my weather alert is blinking and it says severe weather alert. Ok I think I will log off now.

Ohhh you must be getting those nasty storms out west of me! I hear those bad boys are putting down some nasty rains & some severe storms! That's weird though with the lightning & it still being sunny outside. I would love to have seen that. Well be safe during the storm! We won't see it until Sunday, I believe. =[ I know I'm tired of the rain here!!!!

I heard a loud thunk on my door, one of the nieghborhood brats threw a stone. I told them next time I'm calling the cops - and we can do a forensics type thing with the object if we need to.

wow, that is incredible!! I have heard of that, and I guess you have to always be on the lookout for strange weather popping up!! LOL I can say that we havent had any weather like that in a while around here but you never know when something like that is going to happen...and we have had some strange weather like it will snow one day and then a couple days later be like 60 degrees... sounds great but then we get cold again. like today was 75 and tomorrow will be 57 and rain...not looking forward to that one!! good thing everything is ok!!

wow that is something else i love how unpredictable thunderstorms are and i love how they can pop up at any given moment during rain or shine i love them but they can be quite the pain in the but when i am trying to do something outside like ride or train my horse and then a storm comes up and i have to stop i do not mind being out in the rain but i do not want my animals out in it i like the danger and thrill of being out in the storm but it is too dangerous for my animals to be out in it

Here in the UK it has been fine rain and now raining hard outside, yet yesterday it was like a summer's day! It is amazing how the weather changes from day to day and it looks like it isn't only here now but all over the world...littleowl

hello moneymommy so sorry to hear that you had to log off of the computer due to getting bad wheater in your area. today around here in Middle Tennessee, it has been the nicest day that we have had in weeks. this afternoon's high temperature is like seventy-five degrees. i think that our next chance for thunderstorms here is this coming Sunday afternoon. stay safe. take care and have a beautiful afternoon.

I always rush to switch off my computer when the sky send its thunderous roaring cry. I once stubbornly refused to switch off my computer, the spark send my cable into fury and was out of the internet for a few days.
