Normally in Minnesota, if a thunderstorm develops we hear thunder in the west, we hear thunder overhead, and then we hear thunder to the east. Saturday evening in Brimson, we heard thunder in the east without ever hearing it in the west or overhead. In fact, as it was thundering to the east, I saw that the sky was blue to the west.
It was reminiscent of driving through wet pavement, then dry pavement, and then wet pavement again, all within a few minutes.
Or how about the exaggeration in comic books? Donald Duck pays for a weather forecast and is told it will be clear. Then his neighbor gets rain with neatly-cut half drops falling on the fence. Or was it the other way around? Probably something that would make Donald angry.
