Hey guys, how royally fucked am I?

I was draining my water heater to flush the sediment like I usually do twice a year (its a full-size Bradford White 2015 model). Except this time I completely forgot to shut off the power to it before draining it. I realized my mistake about 45 minutes in and immediately disconnected it, so maybe 30-60min of exposed heating elements total.

Right now the tank is filled back up and I still have the power disconnected (20-30min after). So give it to me straight, how bad is it? Did I fry the elements completely? There's two one at the top and one on bottom. Also, now that the tank is full again am I safe to connect the power again or should I wait awhile?
