L Swearengin Posted March 20, 2018 Author Share Posted March 20, 2018 Tornados last night near Atlanta area Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparklepuppies Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I am good. Kathie is a little further west than I am, and I think they got it a little harder. If we don't hear from her soon I can text her. We had about the craziest storm I've ever seen last night. The wind was clocked in my town at 110mph at one point. I have never see a lightning storm like that in my life. And the rain... Lots of hail too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KathieB Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 The storm hit here around 10:30 pm and kept me up until it passed around 12:30. It was a real gully washer. The force of the downpour splashed mulch out onto the patio and what passes for grass. Lights flickered once but stayed on for the duration. I haven't heard of any major damage in this area. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
minilover62 Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 I am very happy that you two are OK, hopefully everybody else is also Ok! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparklepuppies Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 Thanks Carmen! I haven't heard any reports of injuries, so that's good. It really was the craziest storm I've seen though, at least in a long while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KathieB Posted March 20, 2018 Share Posted March 20, 2018 West Paces is sort of in between us, so I'm guessing other than some lost sleep, she's okay, too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

havanaholly Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I hope our northern AL members are all OK. We had some bodacious wind gusts here, but nothing like! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sparklepuppies Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 Another blustery day here in Atlanta, we are under a wind advisory all day. Lots of howling wind at my house last night too. And the tempd will barely make it out of the 40s. Brrrr. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KathieB Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 I went outside to change the yard flag from winter to spring a little while ago. I got the winter flag off the stanchion but it was too cold and windy to stay out long enough to put up the spring flag. Time for some hot cocoa!

havanaholly Posted March 21, 2018 Share Posted March 21, 2018 After several days of springlike, if damp, weather, today is sunny, blustery and COLD. I love the sunshine, but I'm tired of winter, y'all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
