Torrential rain, lots of thunder, high winds, hydro flickering off for a few seconds.

We got all of the above in Peterborough, except that the hailstones weren't so big.

North end had speakers in the clouds. I've never heard such loud thunder continuing for such an extended period. Sewers handled the water. No trees down here.

So that's the third '100 year' storm Peterborough has had in 20 years.

Wow, that's crazy. I was caught in the torrential rain Thursday. Soaked to the skin. It wasn't even raining when I left. Glad I wasn't in that, though, probably come home with a concussion.
