Thank you for all your kind words.
Just had ‘update’ red flag warning issued for our area to expect more winds/ storms tonight through 11 a.m. tomorrow. Just hope we keep our power.

Up most of the night - trees down everywhere on main roads. Today temp again in low 100’s still no power- hooray after 15 hours we have power restored 30 mins ago. All is well (I hope).
Another perfect day ending lol but we have been warned due to heat to expect rolling blackouts but did not expect such a scarey storm.
That sounds horrible, glad your power is back on.

I know ours was due to cables down from falling trees. The scariest was the wind- I have never heard sound like it - this is what woke me up sounded like a train coming into our bedroom - then realized it was the wind.
Our dogs were o.k. Just very hot and panting. What a night! but we are all o.k. and still hot!
@dulwich Fortunately, we didn't lose power. Our lines were moved underground several years ago. Prior to that, we had outages every summer. I had heard that it was going to be a dry lightning storm so was surprised to see that it had rained so much during the night. Here's hoping that we all sleep better tonight!

Hot weather sure brings on bad storms.

Our internet and TV were out on Sunday for about 5 hours. I have Comcast/Infinity. At least, I could reach customer service and get my questions answered. I received a credit for one day for the outage.

I hate storms like that at night...especially if the electric goes out!

That was my perfect Sunday here in East Texas yesterday. Triple digits for days now (not heat index but temp.s) and that storm last night was horrific sounding. Did not loose power thank goodness. Stay safe.

Oooo. I'm sorry, for those of you who experienced storms and also those without power or other services. Hoping everyone is okay. Be safe and well, everyone.❤️
