The Alchemist Posted July 14, 2023 Share Posted July 14, 2023 Drove back from Charlotte tonight. I 85 and 74… Shelby got hammered with that storm… I’ve not seen that much lightning from a storm in a long time…. A few times had to pull over as there was so much rain flooding the road you couldn’t see the lines to tell what lane you were in…Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
