I'm glad to hear that, I know down your way things get a heck of a lot nastier than they do here, that had to be one monster rumbling through. Really not much you can do in preparation, looked like several places around the country had similar storms. Sounds like they tried to catch you guys up on all the rain at once ! I think the worst here was the power outage inconvenience, I've been up well over 24 hours now and am darned tired. Towards the end of the day yesterday, was getting things wrapped up for the day, and you could just hear that classic storm, just marchin it's way in, closer and closer, those are the ones that are the worst, the lighting strikes were just relentless,b and al over the horizon, getting closer very quickly from the first audible ones were heard. It took all day for those thunderheads to form up and boy they did. I knew unlike many isolated ones that have missed us lately, this one was a direct hit. Blew out the glass in my bedroom window, I had to hold a piece of plexi glass to stop most of the water from coming in, 1/2 hour worth of that, saw lots of strikes, kind of ticke me off, being up on a hill, you get a good view of the storms, I could not leave that spot until it let up and the wind changed. Did not hear of anyone getting hurt here either, trees and limbs falling have killed several people in the last few years during storms like this.
