A patch of blue

I woke up this morning to the sound of heavy rain and the sight of occasional flashes of lightning that lit the entire sky.

Driving to work...
There were heavy gray clouds, a downpour, standing water on surface streets slowing the pace. As I got closer to my destination I started to see a patch of blue sky in a sea of dark gray, blue decorated with billowing white clouds. I was under a big cloud; it was still raining on me.
