Finally Rain Pours This Afternoon

July 3, 2021 1:58am CST
The clouds get darker so suddenly after thunder strikes the horizon. I was already on our lawn about to leave for the local market when I saw the ground spots of rain dropping to the ground. I hurriedly went back inside home. The rain was so strong that it caused sudden flooding on the ground. The feeling is refreshing, cool when there's rain. I hope the covid virus once carried by flood won't come to life again to multiply. See the photo I shot from the screened window.

It rained heavily here yesterday in the evening. I could not enjoyed it as I was in office at that time. My kids enjoyed the rain on the terrace

We had rainfall almost every day for the last fortnight. Today, surprisingly, till now there is no rain. However winds are blowing sweetly and coldly. In fact the monsoon season made the weather cold. You have to take a bedsheet at night and that too in India!!!

After a few days with 38 degrees Celsius, we are now at 30 degrees and some heavy rainfall (mixed with hail). Apparently, we have a few more days with rain and then we'll go to 44 degrees Celsius . Can't say I'm happy.

@cacay1 I am impressed by storms, but when I think at all the bad things they bring... I don't like them much. A long time ago, I had to stay on the mountain in a small cabin all by myself for a day. A storm came and I went outside to watch the clouds and the lightnings. It was a bad idea, they were right above my head. Yes, I was scared, I went back inside immediatly .

@HazySue, hi Susan? I hope all is well there in Florida. It's summer time here, extremely hot and the rain yesterday wiped away the hotness of the day. This day, weather station announced thunderstorm in the afternoon. The skies are getting darker now and I see many clothes hang, they may not be dried.
