I had a bolt of lightening land right outside my window last weekend. Scared the schnot outta me. I don\'t think I\'ve ever been that close to 40 kiloamperes of electricity. Then I lost power for 5 hours. You\'d think with the price of power in this state we\'d get better service(please excuse my delusion).

Though still a few days away, thunderstorms are predicted for the Block Island run.
I think I\'ll just a rent bike on the island if it\'s dry. Any idea how much that rental rates may be?
I just looked at Old Harbor Bike Shop\'s website for ya...no prices were listed, but they rent mopeds, bikes, and kayaks. There is a 10% discount if you mention their website, plus if you go to the website i think there\'s a coupon you can print out. Requirements for rental include that you\'re 18+, have a valid ID, and a credit card. There is a credit card deposit for all rentals. Oh, and it\'s located right next to the ferries apparently.

Fingers are crossed, but it\'s looking like typical hot sunny days followed by afternoon thunderstorms. This I can handle. It\'s the full on rain storm that would make the trip interesting. There would be a LOT of four wheelin\' happening!

I would be a sad girl if there were no thunderstorms.

no thunder, no lightning, but we just got absolutely DRENCHED at my cousin\'s graduation. luckily he\'s a \'C\', cause they shut the mics off at like \'E\'.. people were PISSED!

Did you get any storms today Jocelyn? Lightning was touching down practically right in my mom\'s back yard. It was pretty cool to watch from the screened in porch.

We just had the most intense thunderstorm that I can remember, and now the sun is already back out. Pretty cool.

Better go shut my windows in my car!

thunderstorms are great.
except when you are at work.
and your car windows are open.
and you can\'t go outside to close them
for another 3 hours.
:banghead:
:doh:

Fair enough!

I like ****!

Goggles are for pussies.

The only rain I want to see is the 10 (or however far it was) foot drop of tequila off the pier into people\'s mouths. :chug: :thewave:
And like I said before...bring yer goggles!
-
I\'m getting excited to see some rain when I get out there in 1.5 weeks. Haven\'t seen a drop in a couple months (and likely won\'t again till October).
Shut the **** up you!! If it rains for the Block Island trip, I\'m going to lay you out on the beach and make sure your mouth is open so you drown in it. :D
I\'m hoping for some rain on this trip, though I envisioned sunny days and warm nights in my Block Island fantasy.

al, how the hell does anything grow there then?
No rain for approx a half year. We usually get a lot in the winter and spring, then rely on the melting Sierra snowpack to get the state through the summer and fall.
From what I have heard, the L.A. area has only received 2 inches of rain since last July. That\'s a major "sorry, chip" for an area with nearly 20 million people.

Hailing now. I\'m going outside to smoke a cigarette. It\'ll sting like hell and be awesome.
Masochism, woooo...

We are in the midst of one right now!
I love thunderstorms!!
When I was little me and my sister used to go lay on my lawn and watch the storm clouds roll in.
Until the storm came........(I didnt get why it was dangerous) so my folks woud have to drag me inside!(sorry for the nostaglia)
-
One is hitting here right now. Muggy humidity being replaced by cool ionized breeze. Very nice.
-
i love thunderstorms and all things severe weather related. having grown up in the midwest, how can one not love tornadoes?
-
Huge fan of thunderstorms (as long as I\'m not driving in one) and there is one making its way over us right now. I\'m actually sort of a severe weather geek. Whenever there\'s a thunderstorm, I flip to the Weather Channel to gauge it\'s severity. I also actively keep track of the hurricanes and tropical storms each summer.
Oh yeah! The line for the ladies forms to the right.
-
We got a lot of rain down here this afternoon. I found that like running, when you ride your bike in the rain, you tend to go much faster for longer periods. Everything is better in the rain. Just saw a flash of lightening and heard some thunder go overhead.
-
With summer comes thunderstorms....
:D
We have had a ton of them here in the past two weeks. They are not very good for me financially... but I love them nonetheless.
Pretty decent one rolling in here right now...
