Severe Weather Outbreak -- 10:15 pm

Thanks be to God, the worst that happened here in Topeka was an hour-long power outage in the central part of the city. I was among those without power, but the Westar crews did an admirable (and somewhat foolhardy, given the amount of lightning present in these storms) job in getting power back on. Otherwise, the majority of the severe weather occurred west of the city. With the severe weather threat moving east, it's time for me to call it a night. Hopefully, this outbreak is the last one of the season. I'm ready for some calmer weather.
