A Tease Or The Real Deal?

It has been extremely hot here in St. Louis, with a number of days in the 105-110 defgree (Farenheit) range. It hasn’t rained in about a month and a half. The grass in my yard is dead, the leaves on the oak and maple trees in my yard are hanging limp and wilted. A couple of times we had clouds roll in and a lot of thunder and lightening but no rain. Today, about 7:00 pm I took the pictures below.
