Just the beginning

Turned out that the first storm of the evening was just the beginning.  We were treated to rolling thunder storms for about 5 hours.  Furious blasts of noise and rain, lasting a few minutes and followed by clear skies and sunshine.  Now we are told that this will be the pattern all weekend, and there is concern about overland flooding in parts of the province.   I think I'll stay at home and sew, after getting the housework done--of course.
