It should still be sunny tomorrow. Thunderstorms don't usually last for very long I think.

no, not at all. the rain will get your car wet, it's gonna get dark and it'll be harder to see in the dark and you'll also have to use wipers. I suggest u stay home and don't come out until further notice from the news, we have'nt experienced weather like this before.
