The weather forecast said it was going to rain last night, but it didn't look much like it. Then about ten-thirty or so it clouded up and we had a few drops on the roof. By the time we got to bed it was raining pretty steadily.
Then about three-thirty in the morning, I woke up to some big bangs and flashes of light. There was thunder and lightning for about an hour, along with lots of heavy rain. Forry was a bit surprised to hear about it this morning as he slept right through it! It continued to rain until about eight this morning, then cleared off a bit. The forecast talked about more rain this afternoon, but I think it went by us on the west.
It always surprises me to see how quickly the puddles of water disappear. The local news is warning of possible flooding due to supersaturated ground.
The Great-tailed Grackles were busy this morning as usual checking out all of the garbage bags that had been set outside for pick-up by the resort crew. The one in the front with the brownish breast is the female.
