Are we just lucky? I woke up today in Helsinki hearing loud thunder, but I guess I was tired as I seemed to have fallen asleep again quickly.
When I got up and looked at the news, I found out that Friday was supposed a very thundery day, somewhere else it had rained so the streets were awash. But what I heard was the front passing Helsinki. There was also hail, so big that it broke peonies in a garden in Heikinlaakso.

It,s about half past 1 and the sun is shining, but maybe I'll take the umbrella!
