Thunder and lightning

Great storm last night. Woke me up. Huge flashes, sometimes quite close. I honestly can't remember the last time I experienced a storm like that. Growing up in Maryland, they were regular fixtures of summer nights. Much later, the year in Mississippi, I went through a lot too, although they were tinged with the anxious possibility of an accompanying tornado. I would wait for the sirens, which occasionally went off. The last couple of summers in Ithaca, NY, were too cold and rainy to generate many thunderstorms. This one in Boston last night was like a roller coaster: probably quite safe, lots of shake and bang. After a big t-storm I sleep like a baby.
