    Shelf cloud of all shelf clouds just came overhead. It literally just turned black as night outside in about 3 minutes. It looks like that scene in that movie Independence Day.

    Rain!!! we got rain on the weekend. Fortunately it held off coming down hard until after the Trail Name Dedication for Campinspecter's brother and our hike afterward. this area really needs the rain. Starting to sort of clear up today. Fog, mist, rain and sunshine happening all at the same time.

    So laundry and vacuuming for Campinspecter, a highway rescue of his sister and brother-in-law and for me, sewing!! today.

    Yup. Nasty outside. I'm currently cooking on the grill with a timer going from inside. Too sticky to even enjoy grilling.

    Short rain shower blew through here about a half hour ago and dumped the temp. from 88 down to 78 and the humidity went with the temp. Much more comfortable here now. Hope all goes slow and easy for you Bocefus.

    That's a decent crowd and you can still have conversation with folks. Sometimes there gets to be so many you miss the chance to talk to most.

    We have had some very dark clouds go overhead twice now but they kept on going. Just got in bed and we are hearing some low thunder.
