Drought With No End In Sight

Lat two days were 111 degrees.  Today 106.  I think we've received 0.11" of rain this month.  Corn is already being harvested to cut losses and let farmers break even.  Until we get rain we can only dream of thunder.  I found this last evening while working on server issues.  I'm not a tech guy, but it gave me time to surf old photo files and see some things I hadn't posted.  This storm was a nice electrical one from May 30th, 2012.  Brown haze on clouds are city lights from Wichita.

It's been dry for a long time. With the devistating wild fires in Colorado it was nice to see rain, even though it was at a distance.  One of my old haunts lovingly referred to as the perch now has high power floodlights.  I stood beside the building and used a quick shutter speed to drown it out and the city lights over Wichita.

Not sure what this hit.
