A strong storm has rolled into the Jamestown, New Mexico area, bringing with it strong winds, lightning, thunder, rain and hail downpours. All this the courtesy the the monsoon weather pattern.

Looking outside as I type this, I see that the yard is getting a very good soaking, which it needed.

I took the accompanying photos as the storm was in progress.
