lake effect

We have been in a drought for the past several years. Our lawn has turned brown, the trees are an ugly yellowish, and we cannot have a campfire because the wildfire risk is too high. On labor day, it was nice and sunny until the wind picked up and blew in these clouds. I was excited because I thought a storm was going to bring much needed rain. One of the neighbors says, “I always looks bad until it gets here, then it hits the lake and fizzles out.” He was right. The clouds lingered for a bit and it just turned overcast. Later that night there was much lightning in the distance and then we still only got a light sprinkle.
