Nuts! I'm in Santa Clara and can't see anything much. I guess I'd see more if I switched off my PC and went outside

Yeah, i got the camera running... will tape the whole 120 minutes. The line is moving from salinas north... Heavest right now is in the concord area. Davis will soon see it heavy. I'm currently getting at least 1 bolt every 2 mins. I just one arc across the sky for about 10 miles!

turn off the monitor, and stay inside for now... as you should right in the middle of some action in about 20-30 minutes... look south, it's coming right for you...

I've just heard a couple of rumbles. From the noaa maps it looks like the bulk of it has gone right over Fremont with a load more to follow.
