So…how did everyone sleep last night?
I couldn’t have been the only person who was rocked awake last night as the skies opened and all of Edmonton was treated to a buffet of thunder and lightning.
I know my dog Shadow was not a fan. He immediately climbed into bed for thunder buddy cuddles, and I don’t blame him because last night there was a couple bangers that even startled me.
As I scroll social media this morning, it’s clear we weren’t the only ones wide awake at 3 a.m.. Be sure to crack open those windows early and cool down the house because it’s going to be a scorcher today, with forecasters calling for a high of 30 C, or 35 if you count the dreaded Humidex!
