A hackberry emperor (a small dark nondescript butterfly) is at work on the rosemary and a sulphur visited the hibiscus. A spangled skimmer is using the perch. A tiger swallowtail fluttered through like a blowing leaf.
The haze has thickened into overcast. Now at 4pm the thunder is rumbling and it looks gloomy. and the storm hits at a quarter past the hour. Hard rain and wind and an official storm warning. A squirrel scuttled for cover when the lightning flashed. After 6pm it cleared for a while, but clouded up again by twilight. One dead branch is all I see in the way of debris.
