Stormy night


Last night the heavens opened up and down came the hail. Something had to give. It had been mild, compared to previous days, and a cold front was due. The thunder was loud and impressive, the lightning closer than I would have liked. We live on the side of a hill so the the storms from the south come down the valley and hit us hard. This storm appeared to come from the norwest. I went out to check the damage and found the deck and my garden covered in deep hail. It was freezing too of course.
