yeah both foul poles broke off and there was some other minor damage to some fences. No big deal. They'll use temporary foul poles tomorrow.

And that lightning strike was more like 930, not just before noon.

You didn't post any of the pictures from the box... Both foul poles down and some other destruction throughout the stadium...

It's long since cleared out, although there is more rain on the way.

But not like what we saw this morning.

I've seen it make the rounds.

I'm not surprised, that was the nastiest weather I've seen since Hurricane Gustav.

Worse weather I have ever been in and seen, period! I am 49 and have been through many hurricanes and a couple of tornado's and way to many severe thunderstorms to count. When the tornado siren went off I was freak out, can't lie. It was the darkest I have ever seen for being morning. Creepy!
