I did not hear anything, so it must have been a light rain. My balcony plants look quite happy.
How is the weather where you live? Is Summer/Winter announcing that it will arrive soon? We are only about six weeks away from the next Solstice..(Did I get that right?)
Today will be one of my longer teaching days. I hope your Tuesday is off to a good start.

We're having a cold, wet spring this year with the occasional hot day. It stormed here last night and I kept my curtains open so I could watch the lightning zig-zagging across the sky.
At the moment, we're expecting more storms. The Weather Channel is saying we could get tennis ball sized hail along with the storms today. We have a light drizzle falling now. (It is almost 11 am and the temp outside is only up to 55F. Our high is supposed to reach 63F today and then the temp is supposed to start falling again after 3 pm to 49F by 6 pm.)
I thought I wanted to get some errands done and then take Pretty out to eat this evening but she won't go out if it's that chilly that early.
I hope you have fun today at work, pony, so you can tell us a good story when you get home this evening.

@DaddyEvil Glad we're both experiencing "manageable" weather. I don't mind the gloomy skies if they help my gardens.

After a deluge of rain on Saturday, we seem to be back to our old pattern of hot and dry days full of wildfires everywhere. We've got one burning now that's pretty close to the University of Florida. Well, not close enough to worry about burning the campus down, but close enough where the smoke was so thick that they had to cancel classes for a day.

It's in the 50s. Summer hasn't decided to come yet. Strange weather. We are getting enough rain. Wish I could send some to FL and some of the other drought ridden states.
