The revenge of meteorology

I offended the meteorology gods with that last post, and they got their revenge. At 4:50 a.m., a thunderstorm blew in with very little build up. A simultaneous lightning bolt and explosion of thunder down the block shook me from bed. It also woke up the cat, who is terrified of thunder. I heard cat tags jingle as she trotted through the living room, up the stairs, down the hall, and under the bed. Note to self: Do note conflate fired up weather geeks with 16 year old boys ever again.
