Thunder only Happens when its Raining

Now that was the first honest-to-god thunder I’ve heard since I’ve been here. My niece and her friends just left to go visit the countryside this morning. It’s been sunny and warm sine they arrived and we’ve been joking they brought the good weather with them. I’m starting to give that theory credence. I haven’t seen it rain like this either since I left Texas. I sort of miss those storms. Not the ones that sound like a shotgun at your bedside, obviously.
