Sitting here at home today - sick with sore throat and fever and we are getting hammered by a severe thunderstorm - lost electricity for 20 mins and got wind and rain. Looks like more to the west.

And I live just N of Spring Valley! More and more thunder as it gets closer and closer. Not a fast mover which I don't like since it could dump flooding rains or massive amounts of hail, which it already has a history of with golf ball size hail.
Can we say TRAINING SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS? Looks like a real possibility for today. Everything is lining up SW-NE near the coast to about 100 miles inland. We are gonna have fun!!NOT!!! I'll try and get pictures if it gets bad here. Saw your stuff going through on radar earlier Ticka. Almost IMed you, but figured you were at work.
