Bluffton and many midwesterns took a history course this weekend. We lived like pioneers. Many are still roughing it. The history lesson reminded was how our great-great grandparents lived without electricity, air conditioning, telephone service, internet service, freezers and many other wonders of the 21st century.
In Bluffton at 4 p.m., Friday, June 28, the wrath of Mother Nature struck with high winds - some speculating 85 miles per hour - and torrents of rain.

Northwestern Ohio will be in an active severe weather pattern late today through the weekend, according to AEP.
The combination of unstable air, a stalled front, and several upper-level disturbances moving along the front will result in the severe storms. Severe thunderstorms are expected to develop this afternoon over Illinois. These storms may develop into a complex of severe storms - or even a squall line with widespread damaging winds - as they track across Indiana & Ohio this evening into tonight.
