Good luck tonight

Confirmed touchdown right up the road...I recognized that train sound. I guess they had two going at the same time, but only on touched down is what I'm hearing. No power and it has calmed down a bunch now. I guess I'll try and go back to sleep and check damaged in the morning.
We didn't get much over night that Im aware of but the drive to work was crazy. I have about an hour drive each way. On the way in to work I couldn't count 4 seconds between lightning the whole way in. The rain was hard as hell and the wind was crazy too. Hope everyone made it through the night ok.
Nothing but thunder & heavy rain during the night. I thought for sure the yard would be covered in tree top damage from all the cicadas since all the trees have 'em hanging ready to fall, but there wasn't any.
At work now...if any of you have generators, I'd suggest changing the fuel. I can't get mine to start. It's 100% my fault... At work now, it is what it is at this point. I hope the power returns before this next batch of storms this afternoon. I got all my hunting gear upstairs now and I'll tear apart that generator when I get home.

I'm at work now. Lost power at 3am, neighbor says it's still off. Got my generator hoooked up to house and running.
3 trees total loss, 6 more damaged pretty good.
My upcoming weekend just got shot to hell.

I'm good Joe, thanks. Power was restored a little while ago. We have a couple people high on the list for medical reasons on our road. This was the longest it's been out. I hope they are ok.
Rained like there was no tomorrow here in Belmont, Co., Ohio. The rig pad is flooded with standing water!! Glad we are running casing so I did not have to go out and grab samples in this crap!!
My wife wins! Yard is all cleaned up and the basement area that got wet is cleaned up. Took a half day off work to deal with all that.

I do miss making extra money cutting storm damaged trees but I do not miss those violent summer storms. Stay safe.
