The morning after
The air felt heavy early this morning but as the sun rose, so did mist and all is rapidly drying out after yesterday’s series of thunderstorms – most accompanied by torrential, although short in duration, downpours. One storm did a lot of damage to parts of the valley as high winds took down trees which took down power lines. Here, there was a little wind and a few loud crashes of thunder as the fronts passed overhead, then a burst of rain with a sprinkling of graupel followed by a sun break before the next squall. When I shut down last night I thought we might be in for a night of storms but not…just the short squalls and I didn’t hear thunder in the night.
This morning after: birds are singing, the air is clear and still and the sky is blue….
…and some of us are having a Sunday nap.
