Horrendous thunder storm last night! It rolled in around 7:00 pm and all hell broke loose. The sky was as black as could be, there was continuous lightning and winds blowing at 60 miles per hour! It was hailing and raining so hard I couldn't even see across the yard. Fortunately I'd seen the warning early enough to bring all of my potted plants into the house - the hail would have destroyed them. It was hitting the windows so hard I thought they might break (I actually discovered the next morning that the hail had indeed broken one of my windows, although not badly. So far, epoxy is holding it's own). The two small trees in my backyard were bending almost in half, and swirling around from one direction to the other - I swear we were having a tornado...
This morning the sun was out with just a few clouds. If not for the debris all over the roads you might not have even known there had been a storm at all. Supposed to be more storms tonight, but not nearly as severe.
It's funny that, if there is severe weather anywhere else in the country it makes the news. But not in Montana - it's like we're not even part of the US. Well... that would be ok with me, let's cecede and become our own country!
