We had 3 lightning strikes that were incredibly close (we're across Route 25 from Meredith Neck). One blew out a few lightbulbs in our Great Room as I was standing there. The other two you could fell hitting wherever they hit.

The amount of rain was amazing. Apparently I have more roof leaks in the house than I do the barn. One of the oddest things I saw in this storm was the absolute lack of wind. Due to the lack of wind and the heavy rain, I had water coming down multiple chimneys in the house. Hadn't ssen that happen yet.

Any property damage is quickly put into perspective when you hear about the Ashland fatality.
