Is It That Time of Year Again?
Posted 22 August 2008 in Life, the Universe, and Everything by Catriona
Where the storms begin?
So I’m always being terrified by thunderbolts that come from nowhere?
And I keep getting caught in the rain, because I always forget how quickly tropical storms can come up out of nowhere?
And I forget to check BOM before I put a load of washing on, and then suddenly, out of a clear blue sky, it’s bucketing with rain?
When it can be pelting down in the front garden and still sunny in the back garden, as it is now?
When the lightning is so close that I feel the fillings jump in my mouth and I wish that my bed were higher off the ground, so I could hide under it?
Is it that time of year already?
I love that time of year.

The storms take some getting used to, though. I still haven’t got over how quickly they roll in, compared to the slow build down south. And it never ceases to amaze me when the light turns green and all hell breaks loose.
Still, they are fun. They don’t quite make up for the heat and the humidity, but they are fun.
