Wild weather

Today was a real mixed bag of weather. It started out overcast and very steamy. The humidity was high and it felt like it was hard to breath outside. The sun broke through by afternoon and it got quite warm. By early evening there was a severe thunderstorm watch for the area and the sky became very dark.

The storms came and wow they were something! Wind, heavy rain, thunder and lightening, The rain came down so heavy it made my street look like a running river. People's trash bins were floating down the street. We all just sat and watched until the storms passed. There was some flooding on a few of the local roads but things seem to clear up quickly once the storms stopped.

I took my blip photo before the storms had come. I haven't gone outside to see what the garden looks like since the storms. Hopefully everything is still standing.
