Once Upon a Time, Yesterday – Conversations with Stella

I am Stella, Queen of the Olde English Bulldogges. A long time ago, we had a hailstorm here. And a long, long time ago, we had a big snowstorm here. And another long time ago, we had a thunderstorm here. Lady Human kindly taught me all these special words for weird weather.
