    Tornado Damage

    Below is a link to Our local TV station Someone has a picture of one of the tornadoes that ripped through here Yesterday. I believe the link has 51 pictures in a slideshow that shows the damage.

    LOML works for a bank locally
    and at Highland the employees got in the vault and survived, but that was all that is left. Bill

      Bill, I saw that on the news today. I am glad to hear all of you are ok. Those storms sure were destructive and it was sad to watch it on the news and hear some of the people tell what they went thru.

          Lived through too many of those growing up to not feel queazy looking at the pictures, especially the one of the funnel. From that picture, I would guess borderline F2/F3 tornado but the destruction looks more like it was near an F4.

          Glad to hear you and yours are OK!

              I too, saw those pictures on the news tonight. That line of storms moved through here early this morning. We had and pretty good thunder storm, but the damage and deaths were in the northen part of the state.

                  Bill, I thought of you when I watched the news. Glad you are OK.

                  I just looked at the link you provided, and not being from tornado country, It's hard to believe the damage.

                      Thoughts and prayers to those whom were affected by this. The utter devastation to property and people's lives makes my issues meaningless.

                          Same here. You didn't say if you received any damage, but we're sure you're still around. Something like this will make people count their blessings.

                                  We didn't loose a shingle, the dogs and us spent time in the basement. All My siblings are fine, we did pray. Bill
