I was deep within a building and missed the whole lot. Came out and it looked like it just started raining. Gutted I missed all the coolness.

Amazing, 2 minutes from blue skies and a gentle breeze to rain and massive gusts, saw a tree branch torn off by wind. I is wet.
Bit concerned for the peeps I saw riding home just before that hit.
