Quite a storm show last night in Seattle, with 200 lightning strikes in the metro area, and over 2,000 reported around western Washington.
I stood out on the porch, listening to dogs barking and cheers going up around the neighborhood like the Fourth of July. You can't blame people getting excited because thunderstorms are rare, and prolonged, severe ones almost unheard of here.
Of course it brought torrential rain and hail that trashed the big, beautiful begonia I babied along all summer.
Darn!
And if there was any doubt that fall is indeed here, the rain scrubbed the summer feel from the air. This morning is cool and drizzly, with more on the way.
