Mother Nature unleashed .20 and .01 inches of rain last night and this morning.
Mix in a little lightning and you have a spectacular light show.
The lightning did not ignite additional fires. A majority of the lightning was cloud to cloud.
The air smelled fresh after the rain. Almost didn't want to go to work this morning. After all the smoke for several days, it was a great relief to take in a deep breath of fresh air.
We can only hope there is plenty of precipitation to assist the fire crews in snuffing out the South Fork, Empire, Railroad, Mission, and Pier fires in the the Sierras.
It is still fire season up here.
