Last Night's Storm

The eastern shore of Lake Michigan has been getting pounded by violent thunderstorms since yesterday afternoon, but last night some of that action wandered over to this side of the lake, dropping quarter-sized hail and whipping windfs up to a reported 94 mph. This morning, the sidewalks were covered with leaves and branches torn away from the trees above by the hail and winds of the night before.

Watching and hearing that storm from 39 floors up was pretty breathtaking. A tree on Sheridan Rd., between Balmoral dand Catalpa actually split in half. No lie.
