Well...

It just got very still and dark outside. The humidity rose sharply and the pressure changed (I can feel it in my ankle). The sky is an unpleasant shade of green.

This is going to end poorly, I'm thinking.

ETA: The first cell blew through at 50 mph. The second storm cell just hit here. 40 mph winds and small hail, followed by rain coming down in buckets.

Son of ETA: Calmer now, though still dark. Thunder and lightning with moderate rain. They are calling for severe t-storms tonight.

Are you in the basement? If not, I'd go there if I was you.

Just sayin.

The storm cell blew through in under a minute. The storm itself is moving at about 50mph. I had some hail and a little hard wind. The storm windows are closed and the cat in her carrier in case I need to bolt. There's another cell moving through, It should hit in about 15 minutes.

Oh, thanks for the advance on my happy! The first one just tore through here (SLP). Another, another!

It's going to do this off and on all night, I've heard. I'd like a nice lightning storm after dark.

Awesome! (Maybe my meeting will be cancelled and I can go home early!)
