Thunderstorms?

I was not paying attention to the weather today.  I decided to run a brief errand about 2:15 PM.  Earlier in the day, I had noticed that some clouds were growing, and recalled that the weather forecast included the opportunity for a 30% chance of isolated thunderstorms.  I had decided to wait to water the trees, until after today, to see if we did get rain, and also to wait until after the lawn service guys come out and mow the backyard and alley.  They did the front last week, while I was out of town.  

So, I left the house, and there were storms building all around, but I would say the sky was about 30% cloudy, but the clouds definitely bespoke storms.

About 45 minutes later, as I was driving home, the sky was about 80% clouds, and there was thunder and definitely rain in the area.

So about 3:40 PM, I looked out, and it was pouring rain! I am not sure when it started, but 15 minutes later, the sky is getting brighter, the rain is more like sprinkles, but still continuing. We needed the rain.  Thank you for the rain!
