    A nice few strikes around the Waterford area. In my location south of the city we have not had the torrential downpours mentioned by other Waterford posters.

    Last cell of that one clearing off. I'd give it a 7/10. Marks lost for: No tornado, mostly IC lightning and the hail only lasted a bit. :P
