Wow

That was some thunderstorm last night. Sometime around 12:15-12:30 AM there was a lightning stroke so close that there was no perceptible time-lag between the (very bright) flash and the (very loud) bang. This startled me briefly, and apparently scared our router to death. I mean that literally; jwg is out buying a new one as I type (I'm plugged directly into the modem).

And there was 2.5" of water in the rain gauge this morning.
