No storm damage in my county, but sev places in Ala did get hit by tornados late Tues/early Wed morning. No wind damage , maybe an inch of rain. Hope nobody here at satelliteguys had damage or loss of life.
Thoughts and prayers to all the victims of the storms, it could've been much worse.
 
Glad to hear you and yours were safe.

It has been a wild ride here the last couple of weeks.

71F here a week ago yesterday I think, dropped 40 degrees in a little over 4 hours. By Thursday, we had 6 - 8 inches of snow on the ground.

By Saturday it was back up to 60F warming to 75F on Monday with a huges drop yesterday, and now back to 30's going to a low of 9F by Monday morning.

It hailed pea sized hail just 10 miles south of here which wasn't so big, but the quantity was an inch in 15 minutes, plus 3 inches of rain in about an hour.

No wonder there are so many tornadoes and storms.
 
Weird stuff in MO too then. It was around 80 here yesterday, don't recall that before in Feb. Still about 65 today but cooling some more by Saturday down to more reasonable winter temps for us, 50's I believe. Watching that video was something, a guy with a big chev pickup in front of his house in Arkansas, the door handle on the pass side was blown into the door, not sucked out-blown right into the hole it was mounted into. Unreal wind.
 
I was tuning through the Galaxy10 channels last night to see if I could find some broadcasts of Super Tuesday and stumbled upon the news broadcasts of the storms. The area I'm from, we don't see that type of weather (very often). I've been to Florida twice, both times during hurrican season, and I can recall the hurricanes rolling through, but the scariest part or the hurricane weather was the tornado warnings in the county I was in, because there was nowhere to run. I'm fortunate enough to have only experienced the fear and not an actual tornado. Last night I felt the fear of the people down there, and I kept hoping that nobody would get hurt or killed.. My heart goes out to all affected..
 
Mardi Gras day was in the 80s here in New Orleans. The front came through early Wednesday morning, cold air hitting warm air, and was pretty rough here too...
 
Today was 17 and windy in Columbus. Boy did it feel cold and I tought the wind was going to rip off my dishes. But all survived. I was out for a few minutes and my hands froze. It is weird, because only a few days ago it was in the 50s.
