The unpleasant weather brought rain, damaging winds, lightning, and snide remarks:

The NFD chimed in with some damage reports from the storm:
Up to 20 now with wires down/electrical hazard/transformer issues. This storm packs a bit of a wallop.

Fortunately, wires that fell on a school bus full of children on White Bridge @ Briley turned out to be communication lines, NOT power lines

And citizen reporters shared a few photos of what they saw around town:
