Storm in Lavausseau

 
Last night there was a very fierce storm here. The thunder and lightning must have gone off at least 100 times, and it went on for a couple of hours. The only casualty here at Bas Etang was our new canopy that collapsed. Fortunately the roof is intact, but the metal frame is somewhat twisted. I understand that there has not been a storm as bad as this for the last 10 years. And the forecast is bad for the next fortnight too!
