I live downtown and we had some pretty strong gusts shortly after phone alerts warning of winds up to 80mph. I looked at NWS graphics and don’t think there was the hook in there that derechos show, but we got a wave of heavy rain out of the storm – now it’s 71 and light rain – dropped 20 degrees when the front came through.
