We have had two severe storm warnings in the past few hours. The first brought very heavy rain, and the second brought very high winds. Things are a little calmer now.

I'm pretty much in the middle of the map you show and not only has the rain given way to sunshine through scattered clouds and according to weather.com there shouldn't be more than a bit more rain in this area for the remainder of the day today.
