My town is getting hit the hardest in CT right now. I was driving when it started. The entire time all you can hear was thunder after thunder non-stop. I never heard anything like this in my life. It's just continuous lighting. Tree in front of me when I was driving got hit and a bunch of bark and [censored] landed on my car.

i had to drive through the rain in hartford, for once I didn't mind having to do 40 -50 mph because it was raining that hard
I got home about 6 and now it is hitting here
I saw some good lighting over hartford coming down to the city. one was close enough I saw the flash and it sounded like a shot gun went off a second later

You know what, this storm just missed us COMPLETELY. It's something like the tenth decent storm this summer that went right around us. I'm angry now ... perhaps the second band will do something worthwhile ..

I .. um .. fell asleep around 8PM. By that time we STILL hadn't had anything significant past a few lightning strikes close by. I dunno if it did anything decent around here after that. I was really hoping to see something significant too.
The sunset just before then shone through the clouds, giving an eerie yellow twilight and making all the houses look mustard-colored ... it was awesome ...
