   *Intensity: Thunderstorms can produce severe hazards like high winds (over 58 mph), large hail, and tornadoes. Thundershowers feature gentle to moderate rain with low lightning activity. 
Duration and Size: Thunderstorms last longer, cover large areas, and can organize into complex systems. Thundershowers are brief, small, and pass quickly. 
Precipitation: A thunderstorm can technically happen with little to no rain. A thundershower specifically denotes rain accompanied by thunder and lightning.  
     I don't think I've seen a thundershower forecast before.  The computer keeps trying to change the word to thunderstorms so I had to google it.  With the wedding tomorrow I'll probably keep checking the weather today.  I don't know why, what it will be, it will be.
   There were about 5 blueberries left.  Barbie is getting some blueberries.  Gilbert planted some Jersey blueberries, a variety that ripens late.  At least the birds ate insects why they were feeding their fledglings.
    It is garlic harvest time.  The garlic is beautiful this year, every plant has a large head.  Jay is selling them for three dollars a head.
   May your day be blessed, Sally
