Sounds like quite a storm! We have pretty impressive ones here in the Hudson Valley - after all this is Rip Van Winkle territory - but they don't usually last very long. They tend to move through at a pretty good clip. Thank goodness you didn't have serious storm damage. I hope you're feeling better.
