How's your weather?

Still nicely dull here. Today was the most comfortable day at work all week.

Same here.

Our productivity has really dipped this week, it's been too hot to think in the afternoons.

We've just had a thunderstorm.

Was it a good one?

It was a scary loud one with lots of lightning. I was scared to open the gate when we got back (with it being metal), but my husband wouldn't open it. He said he'd have to close it behind us, so we could share the risk of being hit by lightning. I didn't see him sharing any risk when I ran out to cover the pool while he watched from inside the door. I was poohing myself, but I really did expect him to come running out to save me from getting wet or hit by lightning. I was absolutely drenched, but he didn't see the point in us both getting wet.

They reckon the chances of being hit by lightening are very slim 576000 to 1, my mates brother has been hit twice No shit!

According to the National Weather Service, "each spark of lightning can reach over five miles in length, soar to temperatures of approximately 50,000 degrees Fahrenheit and contain 100 million electrical volts."

How unlucky.

Even though the chances of it happening are slim, it doesn't make it any less scary.

Well, that's around 24 times MORE LIKELY than winning the lottery.
