Going to the laptop didn't help. About 10 minutes after I made my last post, the storm hit and the power went out, taking my wireless router with it. The thunder and lightning weren't bad, but it was very windy (gusts up to 70 m.p.h.). We very rarely lose power around here, because it's an industrial area and the warehouses and factories are priority customers. On those rare occasions we do lose power, we get it back within an hour or two. This time, it went out and stayed out for 15 1/2 hours. It was miserable trying to sleep without the air conditioning on last night.
I just hope the contents of my fridge survive. I went grocery shopping about 2 hours before the storm hit. I haven't opened the fridge at all, and I think I'm going to leave it closed for another 4 hours or so just to be safe. Then I'll get to open the door and be surprised by what made it and what didn't.
Meanwhile, I think I'm going to see what restaurants in the area have reopened. I haven't eaten in 17 hours.
