Off Topic Storm/rain Long Point this AM

[Larry Lloyd]

yo Old Cut Folks; It sure looked like you guys got pounded by rain and lighting. Radar showed that storm stalled right over that part of Long Point since 2 or 3am and has just now moved off. Gonna be some wet campers over there. It stormed at Booth's but not as hard. Any reports?

Just hit the water and clear on Collins side

It was intense this morning the down pour and thunder and lightning was quite the show in my bedroom this AM

Hoping to head out this afternoon with a north wind… but looks like it could rain fairly hard again.

Same here. Thinking about heading down but an hour drive for a couple hours might not be worth it. But the radar looks like it’s blowing away from LP so might risk it.

Had quite the pounder here before daylight.

Apparently one of my grandsons were terrified over it. When I heard this from my daughter I said, "Just tell him, the angels were bowling over Cambridge this morning, nothing to worry about, they'll go bowling somewhere else next time."

He can learn the truth about that kind of stuff later.

@Zeeter @Beescreamer I would launch closest to bait island and be prepared to get off the water in a hurry

A Buddy sent me these from Long Point this morning.

Yes, the radar looks better than the forecast.

That’s exactly what I plan to do. Forecast took a turn for the worst

I used to tell my kids it was mother nature's stomach growling and that it would stop when she had something to eat. When they asked about the lightning, I told'em she couldn't make up her mind and kept opening the fridge.

Doe the storm today shut the bass and walleye down for tomorrow.

It was a wild one in Dover.

I've only been able to fish afternoons and have been frustrated with the winds. Even trying to fish largemouth in close has been a challenge due to boat control. I'm giving up until I can fish mornings again.
