Big Cliff Posted September 4, 2011 Report Posted September 4, 2011 I have never seen anything like it! The lightning flashes were almost constant with multipule flashes going so often it was almost like day light out there. It started about 11:30 pm and went on until midnight. We must have been right under the Eastern edge of it because when I looked to the West you could still see the stars shining. It was absolutly beautiful and I stood out on the deck for most of it just enjoying the light show. It only rained here for about 5 minutes and power flickered a couple of times but that was it for here, hope no one had any damage!
lew Posted September 4, 2011 Report Posted September 4, 2011 Still getting the odd flash over this way Cliff and light rain started a short while ago.
Terry Posted September 4, 2011 Report Posted September 4, 2011 still lightning flashes in Bradford.. if we had a bad storm last night I slept through it
Roy Posted September 4, 2011 Report Posted September 4, 2011 We must have been right under the Eastern edge of it because when I looked to the West you could still see the stars shining. UMMM, that would have put you under the western edge of it, Cliff. Was this a test? Did I win anything? A nice light show and no damage anywhere, that's perfect.

Handlebarz Posted September 4, 2011 Report Posted September 4, 2011 it started here last night around 7 or 8pm with a great light show then the skies opened up around 10:30 and it was on and off all night great light show and very loud thunder. I was just glad it held off until after 10pm for the rain as we had a send off party for my niece she is headed to University today we are all proud of her for that.
OhioFisherman Posted September 4, 2011 Report Posted September 4, 2011 It stormed here too, and cut the kids bonfire short. Nice to have the cooler temps though! They are calling for a high of 63 here for Monday? You guys up there might see a frost? LOL
Garry2Rs Posted September 4, 2011 Report Posted September 4, 2011 As usual Apsley missed all the excitement! Or I slept through it... I was out with the pup at 5AM. There were still a few flashes but it must have been far off as I didn't hear any thunder.
bigugli Posted September 4, 2011 Report Posted September 4, 2011 We got the storm in St Jakobs in the middle of the day. 100k+ winds, driving rain, thunder and lightning, etc... . Pretty much wiped out most of the vendors at the market. Stormed here last night, but I was too tired to notice.
misfish Posted September 4, 2011 Report Posted September 4, 2011 We had a major down pour up at pops last night.First time he said,he seen a lake in the yard.Ride home was the same this morning.Burksfalls right down to Barrie.
Jer Posted September 5, 2011 Report Posted September 5, 2011 We had quite the storm thru Ennismore as well...lotsa lightning, wind & rain. The only damage seems to be to my phone line. Somehow we still have intenet (Bell Sympatico), but no dial tone on any phone in the house. Doesn't make any sense to me. The Bell techy is supposed to be here anytime.
Billy Bob Posted September 5, 2011 Report Posted September 5, 2011 We have nothing but GREAT weather down here on the other side of the border... Actually we had Great weather the whole weekend but a bit too humid for my liking...
