storm - 01:11 PM
(filed under 'weather')

wow! you gotta love a good queensland storm. the kind that blows up in two minutes from nothing to doors slamming from the wind & having you literally running from window to window to close them because the rain is coming in horizontally, reaching all the way across the kitchen & getting the fridge wet.

.. & then five minutes later you wouldn't even know that it was there, except for the carnage inside the house being mopped up with a big beach towel & the tree branches & leaves which have been blown around outside.

it brought the temperature down ten degrees in about three minutes. the humidity might even ease up. it's been stinking hot & sweaty for a week now. mind you, the clouds will probably be gone & we'll all be sweltering again by four o'clock this afternoon.

shroom rides his bike around the mill to get from job to job. i hope he wasn't caught in the storm. he would have been blown over by it for sure.

yeah, we had that storm here. i was so happy when it came and then when it went as quickly as it came, i was upset.

the weather wasn't a bit cooler at work, which sucked.

that one blew through here too. of course i think becki is not that far away so you knew that anyway *smile*
i was a bit annoyed coz it was just before i had to go and get stephanie from kinder, and the rain looked so inviting and cool, i just wanted to go out there with no clothes, but i couldn't since i had to be clean and dry to get her at kinder.

my friend lives at browns plains and they got a really awful storm on sunday. apparently it was heading north. the only thing we got was a bit of wind, a bit of rain and that's it.

it would be good if these storms would actually cool everything down.. *smile*
