We had a storm of the century thing last night. It's been raining here incessantly, just like in CA. It's been a wonderful winter - a nice change, lots of overcast days. But, last night, I had to shut the computer down, etc. when a winter thunderstorm started (very unusual).
THEN, the hail storm started.

Thank goodness we have a new roof. Mainly, I was hiding under the bed with all the cats :) It was the most ferocious hail I've ever heard. Afterwards, the street and our yards looked like there was snow everywhere.

This morning, the sun is out and things are melting (didn't even have time to save my potted flowers - hope they make it). Overall, what a great earth cleansing. Our trees are now rid of old leaves, seeds, and ten-year old dust!

I didn't do it.
Though I did wonder when some nice sized storms were coming.
We were supposed to get a thunderstorm last week.
It fizzled before it got here and rained instead.
:(
