I live about 18 miles due north of rrlund. We got the winds, I estimated conservatively at 60mph - (I"m a trained weather spotter.) Lots of tree damage. Been out of power from 2:30am Thursday until about 9:00am today. About bacause they had it on for an hour, and dumped it again for an hour before resuming it.

Ging to be a 90 foot climb on the radio tower at the barn to get that one straightened out. Using dial-up right now. Man is that slow.
