Storm/Tornado






Hi, all. We had a tornado warning at about 2:30 a.m. last night. We sustained quite a bit of tree damage. We are fairly certain a tornado (a small one) skipped down our street. As you can see from the picture, our power pole was ripped out of the ground. We currently have no power, phone, or cable. Lots of limbs down. Whole trees down across the street. This one looks like it was twisted right out of the ground. We went downstairs before the sirens went off because of the high winds and scary noises. We went right to the laundry room and under the stairs. This was a scary one. We were lucky.

What a scary night! Glad you guys are all OK. How are the boys reacting? Are any of these pictures damage at your house?

John, The first, fourth and fifth pictures are of Kate and Jon's house. They worked all day cleaning up the mess. A friend came over and repaired the electric connections in the conduit attached to the house. They still don't have power,phone or TV. We were in the basement last night but had absolutely no damage. Dad and Mom
