When thunder roars…go indoors

NOAA says “When thunder roars, go indoors”

I think that is good advice.

Bear and I took a lunch hour trip to Bigfork.

Going and returning, the clouds were building up over the mountains to the east and to the west.

Smoke in the air and afternoon clouds building…on the road home.

A bit of virga (rain not reaching the ground) and the clouds darkening…

But vivid blue sky and building thunderheads to the west…

Just as I parked the Jeep in the garage, the first bit of thunder rumbled.

We headed in…

When thunder roars…go indoors. Thunder, a whoosh of wind and heavy rain. Twice.
