In Cali they were a big concern as they were often dry lightening storms, here we get gully washers with them.

I've seen staggering thunderheads to the East of us, and a few years ago when we were here visiting the Homestead up on Whalerock in Rist Canyon I got to see some really BIG stuff out over the plains.<br /><br />And as usual, you got soaked, and all we got was the light show. Back to every-other-day watering to try and get the yard to come back.drjimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05647484115197408897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901205574058136834.post-86255091387132896862019-08-14T11:02:28.880-07:002019-08-14T11:02:28.880-07:00Yeah, they're fun to observe, but not so much ...Yeah, they're fun to observe, but not so much if you're in a bad one. <br /><br />I used to love watching them roll in from the West when I was but a wee sprout back in Illinois.drjimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05647484115197408897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901205574058136834.post-76946097762589497062019-08-14T07:05:44.356-07:002019-08-14T07:05:44.356-07:00Mid afternoon I was in Fort Morgan.

Last night the rain hit Greeley hard around 2130. Drove me off my balcony.<br /><br />All part of the monsoon season. Never fear, snow is on the way.
