Same here. I looked at the radar, figured I had 1.5 to 2.0 hrs to go from the north side of Woburn to Waltham. It's a 15 mile ride and normally takes me 65 to 70 minutes. So I left work at 4:45. The northwestern sky looked ominous. As I was crossing rt2 I heard a few ***** cracks up in the air but not so far away. I made it home in about an hour with neither rain nor lightning. That storm hit Woburn about 45 min after I left but missed Lexington and Waltham. The second wave hit Waltham and just passed through 10 min ago.
