This morning's visual:Well yesterday was cloudy and drizzly until the late evening.That was when the thunderstorms started.We had two rounds of that..the first started around 10:30PM and lasted about a ½ hour and then the next one came through around midnight.The first one was more intense than the second but neither were too dramatic or caused and damage or power failures in this area.
More thunderstorms are possible this morning with clearing this afternoon.A little better tomorrow and it's looking good for the weekend. - ©Al C 2008
