In the evening the clouds grew dark and the sky
began to rumble and light up with lightning. We were overdue for rain and
excited to finally get some rain. We watched the radar’s every move as it grew
closer. Finally RAIN! We all stepped out to hear it, feel it ,smell it. It had
been so hot, well over 100, in Des Moines it was 105. After a couple minutes
the rain stopped. The wind blew harder and the lightning filled the sky. We
watched and waited, but it never rained again. A half a tenth of an inch is
what we got. Couldn’t believe it. Miles
around us people got an inch and some even more. All around farms had corn
blown down from all the wind.
