It happens periodically. This seems to be the effect of el Nina. I remember storms like these in the 70s and 80s. It's been continuing. Some areas the drought has eased but not broken. So far we've had four thunderstorms since Monday. They strike in the evening which is also the time I work on the computer. Having to take care of other day to day business matters.

I have the task of binning 15 boxes of books. Lost to the hail damage.

I wish I could tell you how often I logged onto the forums only to have the computer turn off. Right now I have another window open watching if the storm comes this way.

BTW it's 2:30am here I've been working since 8am yesterday. Since I've lost the book a few times anyway. I decided to give it up and you'll see me more on the forum again.
