We had a few moments of pea-sized hail "look Dad, it's sleeting outside!" but it wasn't quite bad enough to trigger the listen-for-rumbling reflex... OTOH, my six-year-old decided that the peak of the lightning was the perfect time to run out into the front yard and then away down the sidewalk. Sigh.

Heh, yeah. I used to go outside during thunderstorms all the time back home, but I bet it's harder to watch one's child do it than to do it oneself.
