Temperatures now halved. Wish I was at my observing site in the mountains right now. Must be sheer bloody heaven there.

I'm a bit further out the highway, at Goodwood. I had just come inside after watching the rain and lightening, I am a bit of thunderstorm junkie, I saw some lightening and heard thunder and thought it was all over. I went back inside then bang the hugest thunderclap I have heard rattled all of the windows in my house. Why would want an observing site in this weather, with these damn clouds?lol
