It has been storming here on and off (mostly on) since the middle of June. I don't think we have gone more than two days in a row without rain. It rains mostly at night but the storms during the day are my favorites. I love it when it is around 90 degrees and it starts to rain. Standing out on the patio and watching the clouds with raindrops falling on me is pure enjoyment.
I have seen more lightning and heard more thunder in the last 5 weeks than I have seen and heard in my entire life. When there is a thunderstorm here, the lighting flashes occur about 10 times every minute and can go on for hours.
I am still posting from the internet cafe as my connection on the hill is very ¨"iffy"! At first my donated computer was very slow but I tweaked it a bit and the speed is much better. However, I am only getting one bar out of five up at my house and the slow connection drives me crazy. I will try a more powerful antenna but I do not have high hopes. I will probably just make do until I visit the US and then shop for a new computer.
Dave, Your descriptions of lightning and thunder are wonderful. In my mind's eye, I am there on the patio with you.

Wish you could send some of that rain to this part of the country. (Nebraska & surrounding states) We finally got a nice rain Wednesday night, the first since about the third week of June. Awfully dry here. I love thunder storms do I wouldn't mind having a little of the thunder and lightning too as long as it comes with rain and not the dry thunderstorms like what started the huge fires west of here near Ainsworth.
