Our Power Was Restored a Couple of Hours Ago

On the other hand, the family room addition to my sister's house (about 25-minutes' drive from ours) was crushed by a large falling tree.

The weatherfolk are calling for storms tonight as well, but it should be the more-usual "scattered thunderstorms" and nothing like last night's derecho event (link to WaPo).

I'm glad to hear you're all right! Wow, that's awful about your sister's place, though. :/

Agh.

I really hope the chaos after year-before-last's big storm convinced Pepco et al to up their game a little. It's way too hot for sick and elderly people not to have power.

I'm so glad you and your family are safe, Cho. I read the reports, it must have been terribly frightening.
