the storm was coming, my thumb and my wrist has warned me. "I feel it coming in the air tonight, oh, Lawd,"
It had been a dreary afternoon with no sun. The air, heavy with moisture, kept switching between drizzling rain and fog.
The perfect evening to wrap yourself in a warm quilt and read by lamp light, but the aching of my natural weather forecasters didn't allow it.
I woke to a magical storm around midnight. The thunder boomed and lightening danced across the sky. The rain plummeted to the ground and I could hear the dry creeks come to life, roaring to the night sky, we are full.
The only thing missing was a musical accompaniment to the grandeur that was the storm.

It really does sound magical. I love it when people make poetry out of what other people complain about.
It roared through here last night. It was quite a symphony of sounds.
I knew it, too, and now my back yard went from a snow covered landscape to an icy swamp.
What a beautiful description...
we need rain badly here and our most recent best bet last night passed us by.
Wonderful little description there :) We are getting our storms now and I'm sure glad the boat is next to the back door ;)

Our storms began around eight thirty and it rained through the night.

It sounds like you had an abundance of it. At least you didn't get washed away. I guess we have those gullies to thank for that. Have a good weekend.
Those lyrics set the mood perfectly for this post!
