PROMISES, PROMISES

We had clouds and lightning and wind and the temperature dropped to near 80 degrees and we got a few drops of rain.  But that was all.  Watching the weather radar, the storm moved in mightily from the east, then split and went south of us by a few blocks or miles or whatever.  But here was our promise before all that.

Pretty.  But like a flirtatious but fickle young lovely, ultimately disappointing.

    You sound like the victim of a weather tease.

    It's not nice to be spurned like that.

    Out of town, but not out of touch. The jet stream has left Germany dry and hot for about 10 days now. We could use a few drops of water, but no complaints from me.

    It's been like that here, too. All around us, but rarely over us. :(

    I thought I was the only one who took the weather personally.
