Thunder

There was a lot of thunder and rain very early this morning. Grandma Olive once told me about an old farmer's tale that's mostly accurate that the first frost in the fall is usually about 6 months after the first thunder & lightning of the year. So we'll look for the first frost about September 30th.

Between the temperatures being in the 40s and 50s the last few days and the rain overnight most of the snow has melted in the back yard and the raised beds closest to the house are mostly uncovered.
