Whomever is lucky in that there are no trees to clean up tomorrow ... ;)
The storms that blew through here today were meh. Local mets reported a maximum 62 mph wind gust, had dime to penny size hail at my place and heavy rain for 15 minutes. Some trees blown down in the region, but not much else to report from HUN area.
 
Those storms headed toward me look healthier than I suspected with nightfall, at the very least it seems I'll be getting strong thunderstorms again. Probably nothing very major though.

Of course almost as soon as I said that, the line dissipated a bit. It's hitting now though and it finally seems like it's cooling off a bit. It was feeling warm to me earlier tonight.
