First thunderstorm and tropical depression

We experience our first thunderstorm together today. Dad saw that a storm was coming so we decided to bathroom the dogs before it rained. By the time I walked Watkins the storm was fairly close. We were down the street a little when a bolt of lightening struck off in the distance with a loud crack. Watkins jumped a mile high. It scared me a little too but it was the bolt of lightning I saw that freaked me out. We made it in and I went to give him some water and another loud crack of thunder and he jumped again but not as bad as out side. Tuesday Tropical storm Edouard is suppose to arrive. Watkins sure is getting acclimated to our weather fast. Poor guy.
