Thunder only happens when it’s raining…

This evening the Texas skies treated us to an early summer thunderstorm that shook the windows and shut off the electricity. It’s an amazing thing to behold. Big clouds and masses of steamy air butting up against each other to produce jagged bolts of lightning that shoot down to the ground. I love that split second when you see the blinding lightning bolt and know the thunderclap is close behind and then “Boooom!” Nothing compares to the feeling of thunder shaking the world around you. When you are in the middle of a thunderstorm you understand the awe and terror of early people who worshipped the sky.
