Thunderstorms...Maybe

The past several days have been nice with warmer temperatures. More of the same is forecast for today with some possible thunderstorms coming through. This will be the case for tomorrow as well. It looks like the real start of monsoon season here.

Still, this sure beats the long winter we had. Just when it seemed to be over, then snow showers would hit. One can generally tell it is over by the nighttime temperatures. They have been in the 40s for the past several days.

I am looking forward for some light shows!
