The monsoons in Tucson. We love 'em. And they perform their Darwinian purpose for golfers too brave to come inside and drivers who don't quite get the 'flash' part in 'flash flood'.<BR/>Love your blog!Tom McNameehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15507850523442690906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206950351545432700.post-77001664285232718572008-02-09T14:15:00.000-06:002008-02-09T14:15:00.000-06:00I used to LOVE Thunderstorms in the South.

As much as I LOVE the power and the feel of them.....I'm a little gunshy and I guess for the first time in my life I can admit "A little "Afraid", now, of some of them.<BR/><BR/>Will you still respect me in the morning now that you know I'm a weenie?

Looking out and seeing the clouds light up like something from a sci-fi show nebula is both wondrous and worrisome.Library-Gryffonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06446982343602702829noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206950351545432700.post-67872467541001458182008-02-07T02:15:00.000-06:002008-02-07T02:15:00.000-06:00I used to love thunder and lightning storms.

Now as soon as there is a hint of thunder or lightning, I have 80 pounds of panting, drooling dog trying as hard as he can to sit on my head or climb up my butt.GuitarGirlRNhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02465186558085758258noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206950351545432700.post-60641757865631497182008-02-06T21:41:00.000-06:002008-02-06T21:41:00.000-06:00I am so jealous!

I stood out on the ER dock (we were on diversion, not that anybody could pass through the roads anyhow; on generator power, no x-ray, no fax, no copiers, bathroom trips required a flashlight) - there is something about the air in a massive storm.Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16604068110452745043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8206950351545432700.post-84646057560552323142008-02-06T13:09:00.000-06:002008-02-06T13:09:00.000-06:00I LOVE lightning storms.
