1. thank goodness!
We hit 100 today and I am finally starting to feel some relief - we had hail a little while ago and another storm coming through right now. :bounce:

Thanks for the update. Must run downstairs for a smoke before they hit!

7. Probably...it's a pretty nastly looking line of storms
my toolbar is saying it's only 81 right now, which is a 10 degree drop from an hour ago...not that I'd want to go outside and check on that right now :scared:

8. The winds right now are howling.
I had to step away from the window. Pouring rain. Pretty intense storm.

6. It's rolling in full-force right now.
No rain yet, but non-stop thunder and lightening. Let's hope this gives us some relief. It's been unbearable the past few days.

12. When I was downstairs right before it hit
as the clouds rolled in they were reddish and totally freaky.

I just hope it doesn't get all New Yorkish muggy after the storm tonight.

13. A HUGE roll of thunder just rocked my house
as I'm typing! The cats are scared shitless and the dogs are barking up a storm (no pun intended). :scared:

14. Yeah, earlier the cats were peacefully snuggling in the spare bedroom.
But the second the storm started whipping around, both our ladies got up to start their investigation as to what could possibly be disturbing their slumber.
