[For Simone
Pereira] February humidity. Colleague emails: "I hope you managed to reach
home before the storm hit Melbourne last night. Locally, many boom gates were
down and stuck in Moreland and Coburg." Me: "I love thunderstorms.
Last night's was too quiet for my liking. Fortunately we are promised more
thunderstorms today." Which prompted memories of Serendip: "I too
love thunderstorms and we had spectacular ones in Sri Lanka during the monsoon
period with rains so heavy you barely saw what was in front of you. Thin, tall coconut trees copped the worst
with lightning strikes to the top branches."
