Day 109: Thunderbolts and lightening

"Thunderbolts and lightening...very, very frightening me" Queen

Project 365: #109

There is nothing nicer than an awesome thunderstorm after a boiling day! You can't see clearly in the photo, but it was absolutely pouring with rain after lots of thunder and lightening! After not having experienced many thunderstorms in the last few years, they are quite scary! The cats thought it was fascinating to watch until a loud thunderclap sent them scurrying under the bed. Our last big storm in Germany resulted in cricket-ball size hailstones shattering our windscreen and damaging the car while we were driving home on the autobahn with nowhere to find shelter...so I am a little wary of them. But this was awesome, I love the smell of summer rain on the tar! It brings back a flood of childhood memories of drenching rain after a hot summer's day of lazing around the school pool with all our friends, and eating freezing cold watermelon in the garden!
