It’s been raining most of the night, the sound of thunder woke me up twice which is fine because this rain is very badly needed. Stepping outside at about 6:30 this morning was really nice with the light rain on my face, helping me to wake up.
The rain is tapping on the skylight over the dining room, the thunder and lightning outside reminds me of a Michigan summer. It can rain all day today, that would be a real treat. These photos show last night’s sunset, not spectacular.
Glad to hear you’re getting some more rain. I’m such a fan of thunderstorms, especially at night.
The photos are beautiful, John! We got a little rain, too. Not much, but anything helps.
Welcome rain I’m sure!
Very much! Monsoon season is wonderful, the rain is sooo needed.
Please send some this way. No rain since July 5th. 😭
I wish I could, that is terrible! 😖
Supposedly, we will get some rain tomorrow or Monday. I really hope so! August just broke the record as highest temps for the month in Houston – ever. It’s not been fun. Hope you have a great weekend!
Nice pics, John, and I know what you mean about that thunder keeping you awake. We’ve had the same.
Thank you! I don’t mind being awakened by the thunder, it’s kind of exciting and bringing much needed rain. ❤️
Yes, we sure needed it!
I’m glad that you got some rain, I suppose it had something to do with Hilary? Maybe it didn’t go far enough north.
I think it had something to do with the phases of the moon and the way they affect climate in general. Why do these storms happen at certain times of the year? Why does our rainy season start in the fall? Something to do with the position of the planets and moon and sun and all that stuff put together.
This is the beauty of God’s mind, just being honest, Anneli. 😊
But that so is a spectacular sunset
Thanks so much, Derrick! This morning’s rain has moved on but there will be more today and tomorrow.
