Weather

Just waiting for the early news to come on we heard about flooding in Boulder.

We are in DCVR and just had a small hail shower go through but the sky had that green look to it just before. We are guessing that this means bad things for Denver.

The year our house in Littleton was hit with baseball size hail we had that wierd green sky and then all hell broke loose.

Starting to grumble again here so who knows, the dog hides a good ten minutes before the storm comes, they are way smarter than us.

The lightning is non stop here right now. Raining again. We had that hail come thru a bit ago and torrential downpour.

Had a couple waves of rain and some small hail here at the Cave. I like these afternoon storms (minus the hail and turnaidos), the air temp comes back down to a reasonable level and the moisture keeps the fire danger down.

A green sky and rapidly moving clouds with rotation is a sure bet that something bad is going to happen somewhere near by!

I knew something was weird when down here there was no storm yet but the whole metro area was put under a storm warning. They were right I had about 4 storms in a row go through about an hour later.

unbelievable storm! On Tuesday night, one of our skylights sprung a leak with so much water running over them. I had to put a bucket on the coffee table. Last night, I was moving stuff on the coffee table to do the same and found a bat lying there. It wasn't moving, but wasn't stiff, so I put him out under the awning on the back deck in my hammock, tucked under the edge of a blanket. It's still there, again not moving, but not stiff. Not sure what is going on. We had lightening like I have NEVER seen it before. Power went off once for about 5 seconds.

We had that 5 second blip too. Just enough that the satellite system thinks it needs to check it's self out.
But I have a dog who is terrified of thunderstorms.
With storms coming through almost every afternoon, I think she's given up.
Where she used to pace and pant and needed to be touching me, now she just gets under a table.
Any table will do but on near me is *preferred*.
Last night I watched her try to get all 100 pounds under the coffee table.
In the end I guess if the head is under it's all good. :thumbsup:

Big black clouds over Evergreen now but not rain yet.

I think we are going to try one of these with our dog.
