Default South East weather!

Praying for the folks in MS, AL, TN and surrounding states. The same path of the tornado that took out hundreds of homes last time is being affected again, and some people have just moved back in! Hopefully Richard (Atomic) will chime in..... I text him and he is good right now.... but its pretty bad other parts of the state.

We have been getting slammed with wind all day. Tornado's supposed to hit any minute.

So far the wind has collapsed a body shops building a block from my office build, knocked a window out of the office next door to mine, and ripped part of the siding off my house. Sirens like crazy, safety personnel all over the place.




I am not leaving my office until the storm is over. My wife is ticked, but she is in the storm shelter at the house. Only an hour left until they say the coast will be clear.

Well, got home snapped the siding back on. Not as bad as the wife described.

I saw a building that collapsed on the way in.

The biggest of my out buildings (25x20) is pushed back a good foot. Back wall is leaning, and the roof is twisted up.

Thankful for no more damage then that. Could have been much worse with wind gusts up to 90MPH.
