6/20/2011 7:43:49 AM
I have never been so scared during a Thunderstorm. It woke me up about 3. The lighting was so constant that it looked day light out side. Every two seconds it sounded like a bomb was going off. It was raining so hard and the wind was blowing so bad. It looked like there was a white curtain put over my window from not being able to see anything past the water and the lighting lighting everything up.Our power just came back on...it went off last night.[Edited on June 20, 2011 at 7:58 AM. Reason : ]
6/20/2011 7:57:41 AM
Yep--crazy storm last night. Huge chunks of hail for a good five minutes. And the lightning was crazy.
6/20/2011 7:59:57 AM
I always sleep through night storms. Shit I didn't even know there was one until I read this thread Saturday early evening one was cool, knocked out power for a few mins.
6/20/2011 8:04:45 AM
I normally sleep through them too...it's been a very long time since I've been woken up by one...but damn I thought I was in a war zone when I first woke up.
6/20/2011 8:15:08 AM
^^ I'm the same way. Didn't know it had rained until I saw the wet sidewalk this morning.
6/20/2011 8:59:29 AM
We're expecting hail up to the size of baseballs and straight-line winds around 80 mph this afternoon. Past two events last week produced 89 mph and 75 mph winds along with tons of golf ball hail. Going to be another active afternoon here in Okie.
6/20/2011 2:10:58 PM
Not a storm but does anyone else see all the smoke around here today?I work in RTP and I am right off Rage Road and 40 - I can normally see 540 and down into Raleigh from here but I can't even see the airport anymore.
