July 26, 2008: FINALS!!

  Oh my, is July almost over?????  🙁  Where does the time go!  🙂  ZOOM ZOOM!

  Finals start today.  I am going to try and take radar first.  Applied Climate second.  I will only be able to finish one today.  It has been a swift semester.  Summer semesters are always that way.  I am anxious to finish the finals and move on.  Unfortunately, next semester will be math.  🙂  NOT a fan!!!!  Thermodynamics is one of the classes.  That just sounds hard!

  A beautiful lightning storm rolled through McCracken County last evening.  We had over 40 lightning strikes within just a few miles of the house.  Tremendous light show and loud thunder.  Daisy enjoyed it!  Temperatures were in the 80s with dew points in the low to middle 70s.  MUGGGGY!  The rainfall came down in sheets.  Visibility was less than 1/2 miles at time.  Winds gusted to 40 mph here in Lone oak.  The clouds were dark and threatening.

  It was one of the heavier rainfalls we have received in the last few months (at least at my house).  WPSD TV 6 reported over .50" of rainfall in less than 30 minutes.  I am sure we had the same here at my house.  This was also one of the better lightning storms we have experienced so far this summer.  Vivid cloud to ground strikes. 

  A severe thunderstorm warning was issued for the southeast portion of the county.  I have not read of any storm damage. 

  We are looking at a rental house today.  It is located just a few blocks away.  Hopefully everything will work out.  We will be moving next week.  That is the plan.  Let’s hope the sale of Ashcreek goes well.  So far there is no reason to think that it won’t.  Especially now that the bank has approved the buyer.  🙂  All good.  I am sure they will love the home.  So many family memories here.  This is a great house for hosting family get togethers.  Now, we move onto the next stage of life!
