We did get a small portion of that passing storm system last night. Somewhere around 2:30 this morning there was a nice display of lightening flashes and booming thunder. The rain sounded fairly steady but I only found about half an inch in the gauge this morning, so I think it was more sound and fury than substance. At any rate, any amount of rain we get is good these days. It sounds as if my little corner of SW Michigan isn’t the only spot where the storms somehow find ways to fail miserably at leaving behind any proof they existed in the first place. Strange but that’s the way it’s going this year. Today is a little too cool for me, tomorrow promises to be the same. But there are plenty of folks who like this cool break in the summery weather. I can’t wait for the real stuff to come back around.
