actual rain

We had a bit of sprinkling the day before yesterday and I figured that was about it. We don't get much rain here in the summer - in fact we just don't expect to get any at all until October-ish.

But last night at about the kids' bedtime, we had an actual thunder-and-lightning storm. The thunder wasn't too loud, but it was basically constant. And then it dumped down rain for about 10 minutes. At about midnight another storm rolled through. More "isolated t-storms" are expected over the next few days. woah!

weather.com says we only had .01 inches, but I'm pretty sure it was wetter than that. The second storm might have been after midnight and so would count for today, but the first one really dumped it down for a while.

AND the highs are in the 70's instead of the average which is about 85 or even what we had a couple of weeks ago: 100.

the temp is fine for it, but I'm abit worried about rain for DS2's class trip to the zoo tomorrow.
