Good to hear you're still around!! It'* been awhile. Your side of the state must have got all the storms. We had a few T-storms but nothing worthwhile.

I got caught in that mess yesterday in NE GR. I was driving west on 96, getting onto M6 toward Holland. It just started coming down insanely hard. The overpass over the Thorn Apple River was damn near stopped. People were stopping in the right lane. Could have been a very serious accident.

Then, later on in Holland we got a nice light show!

Dam, you got hit hard. Over in Livonia we got a few raindrops and some wind. Nothing terrible. Although Oakland County just north of me took a beating.

Been uber sticky hot here, we need some rain to kill the humidity. Good thing my new condo faces east, no hot afternoon sun beating in there.
