East Texas Storms Eight years and still when I step outside I look to the southwest first to check the weather, Half-expecting to feel a cool damp gust of wind On my face; in my nose the slightly acrid tang of ozone And dark clouds rising up along the horizon in that direction. Flashes, sheets of light high up at first, until you start to see, Ragged searing shafts of light crashing down upon the Earth. Sometimes Earth fires back. Blue white bolts of fire, Streaking skyward. Setting clouds alight. This afternoon I sat for a time out on the porch, Watching fat, gray dull clouds roll up from the west And the sea and over the thick stands of fir; Across the volcanic plain at the foot of 14,000 feet of rubble, Rock and snow. You'd think there'd be some noise. But instead, unlike an East Texas storm, these northwest storms Tend to be silent, well-behaved, to deaden the air. Announcing themselves with a soft whoosh of falling rain. I miss the rowdy storms of home. I really do. Weather should be an adventure. Snow should whistle and howl. Rain should lash and thunder. I do. I miss it. Even the thrill Of terror when the dark shape of a tornado skulks past At a distance, silhouetted against the flashing cloud banks. It is in the clean, damp silence when the storms have passed, That you remember to breathe and you feel most alive. © 2019 by Tom King

***Update- Well this seems to be popular! Thanks to all who stopped by for a look*** As I was shooting at the lighthouse I noticed distant flashes of lightning. And thus began a classic all-night Outer Banks thunderstorm.
You know how they say lightning never strikes twice on the same place? Well, "they" lied. Lightning can strike the same spot or area many
