The activity I received Monday afternoon wasn't too close. I did get some rain and some thunder, but not overhead like Sunday evening.
The Severe Thunderstorm Warning for Lake Countythat was issued at 5:12 PM EDT (expired at 6:15 PM EDT), moved south to southwest to my southeast.
Another (non-severe cell) to my southeast that moved in, there was a lot of lightning down in Leesburg, Florida, which is about 10 miles southeast of my location.

Right, Donna, I am 25 to 30 minutes from Leesburg, generally the weather here occurs in Leesburg, but obviously not all the time. I am literally at "tri-county."
Palatka got hit pretty hard yesterday afternoon, which is slightly west of due north of Chad and slightly east of due north from me.
