Severe Thunderstorm Watch Until 5 p.m.

The National Weather Service has issued a Severe Thunderstorm Watch until 5 p.m. this evening. Some of the intense storm activity that could pop up midday today includes hail up to 1.5 inches in diameter, wind gusts up to 70 mph, and lightning. Capital Weather Gang finds the silver lining: "... the cold front causing the storm threat should clear out all this muggy air. We'll feel much more comfortable for the weekend, before shower chances return early next week." Works for us.

Who are we kidding...we've been given a free ticket to ride for the last couple of weeks. If Mother Nature needs to let out a little frustration once, I don't know, every 4 weeks or so, I'll abide. If it doesn't happen, I'll blame one of you perverts.
