    Storms This Afternoon

    They were pretty severe. Any major damage locally?

    Re: Storms This Afternoon

    Was at Goody's earlier today and the lights nearly went out on us, lol... lots of really hard rain too, and some huge rain drops at that!

    Don't know about any damage, but I do know that it came a gully washer up near Norton/Wise, etc., but when I came down to Bullitt Park to pass some, there was literally no rain to be seen anywhere on the roads. Most (or all) of Big Stone must've completely missed it.

    YES. Threw out partial power. Came in on phases when apparently has damaged some of the parts in the big air system at work, so it's about 110 degrees here and rising. Some of the computer equipment is in a seperate room, so maybe it won't fry, but had a server that didn't come up after the power issue last night even though it never lost power (was on battery backup, shut down properly but still...)

    Going to be a long day, after a long night, was at work 5-5.5 hours after quitting time.
    What we've got here is failure to communicate. Some men you just can't reach, so you get what we had here last week which is the way he wants it. Well, he gets it.

    Last night I was at work (Big SDtone KFC) and it started raining pretty hard and thundering and lightning pretty good not long before we closed.

    Liked to have knocked me outta the tower today. You know it's bad when you have to turn the spotlights on at 3:45 p.m.
