Just when you least expect it

I had no idea it was about to rain here. I thought I heard some thunder and looked at the radar. It looked again as if the storm would move north of us and nothing would happen here. Hoping for a FEW minutes of rain, I came down to the garage and opened the door. That was at 9:14. It is now ten after ten in the evening. The rain continues to come down - not torrential or even sideways. Just straight down - rain. A lightning show in the distance with accompanying thunder is ever present. The National Weather Service radar shows a renewing (at the moment anyway) line of storms in western Stokes County just flowing southeast toward us.

Nonstop. Rain. Thunder. Lightning. Light Wind.

The story elements are all in place. Im just writing them down - and listening to JPA talk business.

I wonder what Colorado is like this time of year. I miss STM.
