It was in East Bethany long before 5am or even 4am. I got up at 3am for work and had been listening to it pour for a while before the alarm went off. The lightning was quite spectacular all the way to work between 4am and 5am. I rode the motorcycle to work wearing all of my rain gear and I must say the ride was quite exhilarating.
