We've had a drastic change in weather over the last few days! It went from being down in the 40s up to 70 or 80 degrees just over the weekend! It was less muggy today, but yesterday was ridiculously humid. As such, we had a thunderstorm building all day, which broke in the evening. We got very little rain here, but I guess surrounding areas were hit with tennis ball-sized hail! However, the clouds did put on a fantastic light display, with lighting going off every few seconds. Since it wasn't raining, I videoed a good seven minutes of the storm while waiting to pick my dad up from work. Since the camera on my phone is pretty terrible, I won't subject you to the entire video, but here are some screen-shots of particularly intense lightning flashes:

In other news, I'll be sleeping over at Hazelnut's house tomorrow. We're going to do a dedication ceremony for her (it's been a year and a day!), and we also plan to have a bonfire and go hiking.
