"This further report just in; we're STILL not dead"

Yesterday evening a line of storms formed in CO and western KS and started moving southeast. Serious storms, no doubt; there were some areas long the frontal boundary that got gusts as high as 90mph. Please note: SOME AREAS got gusts that strong. Most of the areas the boundary moved through got anywhere from 30-60mph gusts, many lower than that. And yes, moderate to heavy rain moved along behind the line(my rain guage showed a shade over 2" this morning). But overall, just another summer storm night with some severe weather.

But for a while during the evening/night, you'd have thought the world was going to blow away. I realize the weather weenies want to make sure people know there's severe weather coming, but overdoing it doesn't help.

Oh well, it was a good rain. Though right now it's humid enough to grow moss on a fence post.
