I know I'm still a Southern Californian at heart -- accustomed to sunny skies and balmy temperatures -- but I think even the Nashville natives have been surprised by the weather lately.
This afternoon, we had some serious storms -- flooding, tornadoes, sirens and wind. Massive trees crashed to the ground. Streets were closed. Traffic was jammed. The windows were blown out of a Popeyes. And lots of cars were damaged by rocks and other debris.
These pictures are from my cell phone camera, so they don't really give the storm justice, but it was some crazy-ass weather. I was in Williamson County when I took these, and a brief run to the grocery store left me drenched like I just got out of the shower.
I heard we're supposed to get snow flurries on Sunday and Monday. What the hell?
The truth is, though, that as much as I'm ready to move back to California in a moment's notice, I will miss this insane, ever-changing weather. I'm a storm fan, and thunder and lightning make me happy. Go figure.
