Stormy
Bonus. I scored two thunderstorms yesterday. The first showed around 8 p.m. The second appeared in the morning at 1 a.m. Although as I write that I realize actually it was one yesterday and one today.

A terrific storm banged and rattled the house last night. There was thunder, there was lightning, there was wind. There was very little rain.
