A line of thunderstorms blew through to just north and west of us yesterday and broke our triple-digit-high streak two days shy of the record. The temperature dropped ten degrees, and although the lovely wind smelling of rain and the clouds quickly dissipated, there wasn't enough time left in the afternoon to heat up again; we fell three degrees shy of 100.
We did make it to triple digits today, but around sunset, more teasing clouds blew in from the west. There was lightning and thunder and even a few small drops that fell before evaporating on our driveway, but once again, no rain. :(
