[URBAN NOTE] Stormy Weather

[rfmcdonald]

As someone who was caught outside at the beginning of Wednesday's lightning storm, I can confirm that it was impressive. The rain came down thickly, and for long seconds the night sky was lit bright blue and purple by the lightning discharges.

It's much cooler today, but it's not yet noon. We'll see. Myself, I'm hoping for more storms--power outages aside, they're a nicely spectacular way to break the humidity that so worsens the heat.
