Watch out for that...

Thunderstorm!

So I was out pedaling around for a couple hours after work, and an ominous cloud appeared on the horizon. Looked like it was going to the north, so I pedaled on. Then the wind picked up, which provided some excellent exercise. Then the temperature dropped about 10 degrees between one pedal stroke and the next. At that point I headed for home. Wise choice as not 10 minutes later there were some powerful-looking lightning bolts maybe 4 miles away.

Just checked the radar; yep giant red storm, very southern tip of it just passing barely to the north. But another big red storm with Chesterfield square in its sights right behind. In fact I think it just starting raining...

Dodged another one!
