Default Stormy night

We had quite a storm pass through here last night. Rain was coming down at about an inch per hour, lots of lightning, and funnel clouds spotted. I know it hit in Oklahoma first, not sure where it passed on to from here, it was moving NE at 50mph!
If you were in the path of the storms, I hope you got through okay. We probably got close to 3" of rain here, very close lightning strikes, but no real damage.

We caught the very souther edge of this. We got some rain, 1.1", some thunder, and very little lightening. I hope everyone else faired as well as we did!

Here in Illinois we got 5" overnite and they predict more today. Can't wait to get back to Florida where all I have to worry about are hurricanes.
