Heard thunder this morning and watched the rain on the radar drift by right off the coast.

More thunder this afternoon and we finally got a little shower out of it.

I'm bored. lol Nothing better to do than watch the radar and sit here and wait on the inspector to come - and he didn't. :grr:

Rolling thunder and showers. I'm getting moldy but I don't care. It certainly cools things off.

0.48 inches this afternoon. I went for a walk at around 6 PM under mostly sunny conditions and then it began to rain very lightly under the Sun. Afterwards it became cloudy, it rained very heavy in occasions and a few thunders. I don't have to say that I got wet and my walk was ruined!!!
