I'd love to plan a trip to areas with violent summer thunderstorms -- to experience and photo them. I see photos all summer posted on WunderPhotos, photos of huge piles of clouds with great lightening, etc. almost all posted by people from the eastern Rockies to Florida. We have very few opportunities in the far west for that.
On the other hand -- we don't have summer humidity, either.
Love those monsoon thunderstorms, too (except when there's damaging hail). I don't like the dry lightning we get, typically in June, as the monsoon season starts to ramp up. The forest is very dry then and we get lightning without rain. Bad news.
Love the humidity as well. It's a nice change from the usual dryness, and it's nothing like the Midwest and East summer humidity.
I've been thinking of picking up one of those handheld weather meters made by Kestrel. The higher end ones have data-logging. Kind of pricey, though.
Hmmm. Wandering off topic again. Back to springtime... the Rocky Mountain iris have sent up leaves. I don't think it'll be a very good year for blooms, though.
