    Lightning Storm and High Winds Blast Area

    By Ryn  |  Posted July 1, 2012  |  Hughesville, Maryland
     

    CNN PRODUCER NOTE     Ryn says the storm that hit on June 29, left her and many people in her area without power. Although her power was later restored there are many who remain in her area without power. She says the storm that swept through Hughesville, Maryland, was not what she anticipated. 'We knew Irene was coming and was somewhat prepared. This storm came quickly out of no where, as bad as Irene was, this storm was more frightening because no one expected this,' she says.
    - Jareen, CNN iReport producer
