Today, we had some of the most spectacular rain I have seen in a while. It was just pouring down in sheets. I saw lightning and heard thunder for the first time since we moved up here to Oregon! Just amazing.
I was waiting for the bus when the rain started to pick up. The city builds covered rain shelters at all the major bus stops. Shortly after I sought cover, the sky just opened up. The drops were pouring in a thunderous roar. The wind was wipping the water everywhere. When the bus finally pulled up, I ran out of the shelter to get in the bus. I only in the rain for about 15 seconds, but I got soaked.
Typically, the rain up here is moderate to light. I usually doesn't pour. Today was the exception. What a sight!
