thanks.
yeah, southern hemisphere. middle of summer here. it is nice when it is windier. the storms are a bit erractic, though. it can cloud over and then the thunder and lightning start. seem to come from nowhere all of a sudden. we get storm warnings across the tv screen at the bottom... so that is kinda nice. only a couple hours warning though. it stormed a lot yesterday afternoon. thunder was so loud and lots of lightning. meant to be the same this afternoon. i should probably do groceries soon as i'm more likely to get caught this afternoon. in fact... i really really should, so i might just go do that now :-)
