On the evening of August 18, toward the end of Compline we began to get a tremendous storm. The electricity went out. As we left compline it was starting to rain and soon the hail came with it. The winds reached up to 90-100 mph and the hail lasted for a good twenty minutes or so. We received quite a bit of damage, the Sisters at Clyde received even more damage. All the crops in this area were ruined -- especially the corn and soybeans. We were without electricity until Saturday morning, August 20.
