I made the mistake of listening to both the local forecasters and the National Weather Service, who all claimed we’d see thunderstorms after 1PM this afternoon but neglected to notice the HUGE FREAKING STORMFRONT that swept through the area early this morning, soaking our lawn, our parched garden, and the Scout, which was parked topless in the driveway.

At least the power came back on after blinking out while we slept.
