I tell ya.. I've never seen you scared of a storm before Bonnie.. I felt bad for you.. especially when you called saying you couldn't get ahold of your landlady to go to her basement.. nothing was on the scanner yet.. and I'd no more than hung up when the sirens started. The scanner started. All hell broke loose.. it was awesome!
A funnel cloud had been spotted in Clay county, so I figured Bon would have time to get here.. so I called and told her so.. I've never seen a storm like that one. I'm guessing that when she was on her way over here, the wind hit just a couple of blocks from us, tore the roofs off of a trailor in the park on that side of us, and tore the roof off of Doyle Jean's home less than a mile from us on the other side of town. Down Mom's road was the worst.. we couldn't have been gone from there 10 minutes when it hit there. Look at those electric poles in the photos.. I'd have been scared to death if we'd driven by those as that was happening. Anyway, we're all safe, it's like it circled us completely. I'm glad it didn't do any damage here.
Here's some of the pics for you.. I'm sorry I didn't get them posted before now, but here you go..
