Thunder N Lightening
Mood:  energetic
Tuesday, Sept. 15th

It started out a normal warm, muggy day when i cycled to school this morning. Half way through the morning i noticed some clouds developing but this isn't unusual. By 12:50 it was getting darker and darker and within minutes thunder began rumbling it's way towards us. Wow, it was suddenly raining sideways and the lightening was almost on top of us. We had a rather nerve-racking lunch watching the lightening bolts streak down towards the trees outside our window. The lights flickered and the loudspeaker popped. The result is that two days later we still don't have our bell system working. It seems the lightening fried some circuits.
Amazingly, the storm zoomed on past us and within two hours the sun was shining and it was a gorgeous day again. Oh, except that the humidity must be up to 80% - gasp.
