Not been too bad today but just in the last hour or so the wind has got up and it's brilliant - spent a lot of time in Africa and really love storms so am sorting out wellies plus a raincoat and umbrella for the dog to go out and enjoy the deluge.
I cannot remember the last time we had a good storm.My Dad used to say living on a peninsula meant we never got them that bad....hang on,I remember one about 15 years ago,went on for over an hour and the lightening was striking every second-amazing
I've lived in Africa for many years and can remember one time a ferocious storm that broke at about 2am - it was just incredible - we were all going to die - the dogs and I succumed to our fate and sat on the stoep (verandha) and watched the lightning striking all around us - what an experience - the clouds here are doing their best to threaten - fingers crossed
