Dark Weather . . . .
For the most part June was a wet month. We set some records for moisture for June and the year. Looking at July, it is not going to end. Now don't get me wrong, we still have some wonderful weather here in eastern Idaho. It is just that most evenings end with these dark clouds rolling in. I have not had to water my lawn in weeks and it is still green and lush. Most years we have to water three to four days each week. I tried to capture some lightning but it is even harder than capturing fireworks. Oh well, maybe next storm.
Blessings.

We've had a very wet spring and summer in central Illinois.
hope that lighting doesnt' capture you
@decembriel - I remember those days. Though I was born in St. Louis, I lived my teenage years in Mattoon, Illinois, graduating in 1980. I spent a few years at EIU in CHarleston before joining the Navy and ultimately moving west to Idaho. I remember the long wet spring weather followed by the hot humid days of summer. I even detasseled corn during my summers during those hot August days. I really miss the thunderstorms and even, ironically, the tornadoes. Ah, the memories.
@gamachesr - That description sounds warmly familiar to me.
