Yeah - most of FL got ripped off of the chance for much needed rain...

It was just that the East coast got pummeled by the N/S Feter Band...

It is too bad it didn't drift a bit more west so more of the state could have had some...

And Sweden  have had more rain than ever recorded before (recorded since 1760), and one of the coolest.

Thats the price you must pay for having large-breasted, blonde women who look sexy trying to speak English but fail at it miserably.  Who needs English anyway?

On monday night, there was some crazy lightning at about 3:00 am that had bolts that looked to be over 50 miles long.

You would see a flash running north/south all the way to the horizon and wouldn't hear the thunder for about 15 seconds.

The thunder had a different character in that you could feel a very strong sub-bass frequency and the thunderclaps lasted for 7 seconds per strike.

Bizarre.
