Thunder in the afternoons

One of the joys of living in the deep south is the storms in the mid afternoon: there is something electric in the flashes of light and the sudden claps of thunder. As long as I am not caught outside in them, they can be the most exciting part of the day. And the air afterwards, cooled by twenty degrees for a little while, is so refreshing, and the smell of it is incredible.
