I can add updates to this, just a little while ago in the little town of Paron on Hwy 9 just south of me a tornado destroyed a local church, according to the TV report it was totally leveled. No injuries though.

It was a pleasant and warm day Tuesday and Wednesday and I finished cleaning out a old fence row and plowed some ground for a huge crop of sunflowers that I grow every year. ;D

I mentioned that a little rain shower would be nice to get them started. Chances of rain this morning was at 40%. Man have we got all 40%!

Current storm cell moving this way has reported up to 60 MPH winds with 1/4" size hail.

Got all the vehicles in the carport and under the shed.

May be a rough night ahead but better weather predicted tomorrow but a 60% of bad storms Saturday.

I'm satisfied the sunflowers have had enough rain.

Still not so good in places, right now we have partly cloudy skies and just light rain at times, still extremely humid and hot, perfect weather for twisters. But if it can get into tonight the prediction is for cooler even as low as the high 50's which with cooler air takes the risk out of them forming greatly.

This storm front is predicted to leave by Monday.

Glad to hear you getting out of the storm finally--looks like some sunshine is squeaking through the clouds around the area--2 more days and we may be in the clear---Whew !

Well yesterday we got 2 inches of rain, small hail, and a lot of wind. :# Tree down in my side yard but still I've got the best looking garden that I have planted in years. Now if we don't have a drought, I'll have more than enough veggies and I can give some away.
