I lived there for many years.

There aren't any reports of injuries - probably because of what time it happened (1:20 am).

My niece's power was just restored. Several school districts have canceled classes, today, including one right by me! Not sure why but when it's light I'll do a tour of the property to see if I lost any tree branches. Hopefully that is all. I had just fallen asleep about an hour before this happened so I was DEEP asleep and never even heard the thunder.
