I genuinely thought a nearby building had exploded, I'd completely forgotten it was even raining outside.

Incredibly bright lightning and loud thunder for what seemed like minutes before rain and hail here in Astoria.

The fact I didn't hear the rain until now, granted I was listening to music, is a testament to how much I am used to the rain.

Yep, definitely scared me. I was watching MrBallen on Youtube and had to pause to go look out the window to make sure nothing bad had happened outside.

Where snow.

I don’t even like snow that much I just like that work gets less traffic because people aren’t really out when it comes down

Heard what I thought was hard rain, I now know was hail. Got colder this afternoon though for sure. I walked up to the tin building for lunch and you could feel that wind.

At least it wasn't as wild as the one from a few months ago, where people thought terries attacked.
