Storm Damage

There was some really close lightning/thunderbolts last night.

The damage so far:
- A bunch of circuit breakers and at least one ground-fault circuit-interruptor had to be reset (despite the breakers not appearing to have tripped)
- One blown fuse, disabling the water pressure tank, leaving us with no water in the house. (I replaced the fuse with a circuit breaker that fits the socket.)
- The display on my fancy two-line desk phone is dead, so I no longer know who's calling (among other uses of that display). I'll need to check the surge protection on that.

Things are better now that the water is fixed (and will be better still after I finally get a shower), but the phone damage is a repeating low-level annoyance.
