Dark Skies, Loud Thunder and a Drizzle.

It is 3:30 in the afternoon. As forecasted, thunder can be heard when the clock strikes 3. The skies turned darker by the minute, as if the clouds had secrets to keep. A soft breeze pushed through the windows, carrying that distinct scent of rain. It seems the thunder cannot be silenced. Now, it is drizzling. Not enough to really cool down the temperature. But I will still take that, unlike yesterday when it was 33C at 4pm.

I'm glad the temperature at your place is going to come down. You now have drizzling, we didn't have a drop of rain. We are being roasted.

Yes, it is dark in here, and I heard thunder a while ago, but I haven't seen or heard any raindrops yet. I'm glad I finished my tasks outside and can just stay inside the house now.

Sounds like nice weather to me. I enjoy a good thunderstorm, although I know that a lot of dogs don't.

I love it when it starts thundering, lightning and rain starts falling. I'll open the curtains on my windows and watch the light show and the rain falling on the windows. And yes, that normally cools the air, as well.

I hate when it rains all the time. We probably won't have that much rain, but it is looking like it will be cloudy all week. Bummer

Yes, I hope so too. And I hope all those talks and hearing will result in something good for the people. I hope that there is no new issues that will surface that will erase the issue now

The good part of the rain is that the heat does cool down a little bit.
