20 minutes left on the battery. Hoping the lightening lets up prior to going all the way down. Though it seems to be closer than earlier.

Been pouring since about 2 minutes after we got in the door. Lightening is almost continuous. Am on the laptop on battery and wireless.

Both from the flash and the extra heavy rain. Got here and most of the rain had not gotten here yet so got in without getting too wet.

I stopped and waited a minute. More fireworks as the wire sagged and then held. I floored it and we made it, then drove home almost blind.

Quite an exciting drive home this evening. Lightening hit just in front of us in front of the Weaver Elementary School taking out a wire.
