A large storm passed through and knocked the power out. Swampland will return as soon as the power is back up

You have got to tell me who your ISP is that you can surf the web when the power's out and tell us all about it!

Edit: So I thought it would be an excellent time to make sure the stat retrieval script has a proper fallback and discovered the stat script has been misconfigured since I "fixed" it. Sorry. But the stat retrieval script is falling back properly.

So we can still have up-to-date stats for swampland when it's down, finally.

Thunderstorm took out my power last night too

Actually there were thunderstorms close here too, but far enough that you could only here soft rumbling. Sab was probably closer.

Immediate edit: it's just starting again

, but this time closer.

Clear blue skies in Texas.

(Thunderstorm season is over, but we had some awesome thunderstorms this year)

More serious thunderstorm now... Lots of very bright flashes, but not much of a thunder.

It happened again

A storm came through at around 6PM EST. and knocked out the power for 5 hours.
