I just wanted to drop a line to see if anyone else was effected by this storm. I have counted that I should have been dead at least 4 times over via this storm - from almost leaving my house a few minutes before it got to my home, to having my generator start on fire with me filling it, to almost falling off my roof. I escaped with a broken thumb.
My home lost a part of its roof (above my son's room), rooms shot with glass pieces in doors and walls and furniture, many windows blown out, fence gone, trees gone, glass and insulation everywhere. Very fortunate that my family is all OK. Just 100 yards away there are no homes left. 1000-1500 homes are gone in town.
I took pictures of it as it came over the woods behind me. At that time is just sounded like the cliché "freight train". In just 30 seconds it displayed a full funnel.
For some lighter side news (as I need it), my Cobra is OK. Just got some insulation on it. It has never been in the rain, but has now been in a tornado.
Take care everyone!
