In my day this sort of weather happened everyday. We'd all go outside, laugh and point at it.
Those were the good old days!

I've seen one Tornado in Arkansas and had $3000 dollars worth of hail damage done to one of my previous trucks. I love to watch thunderstorms roll in tho.

Woah! Has anybody petitioned your daughter to leave WY? Has she found snowballs wrapped in newspaper on her doorstep yet? I think that to be a sign definitely worth heeding. I think that would be indicative of popular sentiment going in a direction she may not be so fond of. On the other hand, people may be just too scared to take overt action in such fashion. But look at what happens to people accused of being witch doctors in Africa, so I'm guessing it really could go either way.

Unless you live where Right Whale does. Around his parts there's not enough atmosphere to support the regular happening of thunderstorms and as a result they're fairly rare in his neck of the woods. Although, he seemed to intimate that when they do happen, there seems to be a tendency for them to occur after midnight simultaneously with the occurance of rainbows!

LOL! She would LOVE to get out of WY--but one must be where one's job is.
Actually, most of WY is absolutely breath-takingly lovely. Unfortunately, Laramie is flat and very arid. It's hard to grow anything there.

That's right. Weather here is barely possible, nothing like Michigan.
