Started around 9 and went on for hours. Lots of boom boom. Power went off but two of our clocks were FAST when they came back on.

There was a downpour at Airport Road but the storm had subsided by the time I got home. Lots of trees down south and west of town. More storms on the way.

About 5,000 Dominion Electric customers out in Charlottesville and Albemarle County
