Where have all the thunderstorms gone?
Until today, they’ve curved around the south of us. Sometimes the north. Maryville has the distinction of being the highest point between Kansas City and Omaha. I wonder if this is part of the reason why we haven’t been getting the good storms.
Cue this morning
This morning I woke up to thunder. Close thunder. And rain pattering on the roof. Hours later, it still looks cloudy out and maybe rainy. And we are in a flash flood watch.
Maybe daylilies will come back from their wilting sulk. Maybe the grass will green up.
There’s another peal of thunder. It has been so long since we’ve had a good storm.
