Week 28: Big thundertstorms
The weather got considerably hotter as the week
progressed to become quite sweltering. Inevitably, this was a recipe for
thunderstorms, and there was a mega one on Friday evening for the inauguration
of the new hall for the Verbier Festival. So big, in fact, that it brought down
the electricity in the whole area and forced an impromptu intermission. The
following day was spent mostly under cloud and cooler conditions. But this did
not prevent another thunderstorm accompanied by hail just at 7 pm as the concert
was due to start, forcing a delay of some 45 minutes. Fortunately for the
Festival, this experience should not happen again over the next few
days.
The power cut on Saturday stopped the computer, of course, and unfortunately we forgot to fire it up again, so that there are no statistics for some 36 hours.
