I had just come in about 10 minutes ago from mulching my flower beds and lightning just hit the lightning rods on top of my house! I heard it sizzle as it passed through and my lights flickered, but the power did not go out. You could just feel the air hanging so heavy this evening. The sky got dark and I felt a wave of cool air. Glad I did not hang around too long.
We are forecast to have 4 days of showery weather with high temperatures in the 60's and 70's. It has been so dry that I am thrilled to have a break from watering. It will also be a good time to do some work outside, even if I get wet.
Weather has been picture perfect (80's and sunny) for a long time. Great for swimming, not so great for weeding.
