Sailors Take Warning!

The tropical storm that originated in the Philippines has made its way north the Shanghai.

Today at about noon the sky turned very dark and it began to rain like nothing I'd ever seen.

What happened next was unbelievable.  Hadn't I got video of it (or some sort of documentation.....don't know if it qualifies as a video really) I doubt anyone would ever believe me.

I went out on our balcony to check out the madness....and decided to take video to see if I could capture some of the cool thunder/lightening storm.  What happened next, or how long I was out- I can't say for sure....not very long though.  Another, even larger crack of thunder brought me to.  My ears are still ringing.....
