I've been in Grapevine, TX the last 5 days. When the line came through Grapevine, it was strong enough to knock out all power to the resort I was staying at. It was raining cats and dogs an hour later when I finally got out to a window. Either way, being in a room full of 4,000 people in pitch black is no fun.
