			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Oy, thunderstorms.  It&#8217;s 3:30 in the morning.  It&#8217;s the second time I&#8217;m up&#8230; though I think it&#8217;s also the last of the cells to pass before the storm is basically spent.   I wish I could sleep through these things, but I just can&#8217;t keep my heart from racing, even when on the surface I feel pretty confident everything is going to be fine.  Animal instinct, I guess.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s a pretty strange storm, for Davis anyway.  The cell that went by around 1 am had so, so much lightening &#8211; a nearly constantly lit sky.  You could see it going every which way, it was pretty incredible.  I&#8217;ve only seen a storm like that once, and it was in Louisiana.  I didn&#8217;t realize we had such storms here sometimes.  Though Lewis said he&#8217; d never seen one like it either, so it&#8217;s certainly strange for Davis.  This second cell is a lot more normal-y for a Seattle girl like me &#8211; lots of rain and hail, big window-rattling peels of thunder every couple minutes.  They&#8217;re even shaking the pictures on the wall just a bit.</p>
<p>Sigh.  I give it another half hour, and I&#8217;ll be glad when it passes.   Oo.. we&#8217;re down to the 4-second mark between flash and boom.  Guess it&#8217;s right overhead.  That means it should be soon getting further away than closer&#8230;</p>
