Sounds like that's what it was - wow, must have been some storms - I know these were big, even Chicago got hit, but wow, at 35,000 feet eh... so solid that they couldn't fly around it.

When once you have experienced being a 1K, you will forever fly the friendly skies with your eyes set on 100% mileage bonus and SWUs, for there you have been, and there you will always long to return, every year!
