2. Yeah, but... I'm tucked in with the dog in the basement with hail, thunderstorms & tornado

warnings all around me. Aren't you in Northern CO, too?

I had to park my car outside--keeping fingers crossed no damage....

But it is days like this I am grateful to have a basement. FIngers crossed we get rain and no major damage/flooding.

3. I love when that happens.

As long as it's not too violent. I near have to contain whoops of joy when I see one roll in on a torrid day: The darkening of the sky giving us a break from the sun. The shifting cool downdrafts. The storm itself as the temperature can go from 96 to 68 in minutes.

Sure it's short lived, and we often pay dearly one it has passes as the air gets muggier yet, but I'll take any chance I can to give a raised middle finger to summer.

5. You can keep it!!!

Here in the German Rheinland, if it dropped 20°F, we'd be near blizzard conditions, seeing as how it has been in the low 50s(F) and raining for a week!

Summer here was on a Tuesday this year, and it came early.

7. my best friend and her boyfriend are visiting from northern germany

they told me everyone back home is wearing winter coats.

In two days it'll be JULY fer Pete's sake!
