Last night's storm

We had our first severe storm of the year. It was pretty scary at times although we did not have to take cover. The winds were really strong and shook the house, and at one time the sky was lit by 5 strikes of lightning at the same time! It was blinding!

We have no damage here in town (which is good because its the annual Mushroom Festival this weekend). However surrounding towns and cities got hit pretty hard. The news has been talking all morning (even going into extended air time) about all the houses and stores that are damaged or not even there anymore! Chuck just left for work fully expecting to find the store with some damage to it. His store is in an area that has some major damage reports... and when he tried calling the store there was no answer.

I took a video of some lightning so once I get that uploaded I will add it.
