OT: Storm Damage

Shawn · 6/4/08, 10:14 PM

Wow, what a week of storms in the area. I live less than ten minutes from Knightstown and it's still a mess, pretty much. The damage continues east, down US 40. There are a ton of trees down on houses, cars, etc. Also, power lines, street lights and limbs litter the streets. This is from the storms on last Friday Night.

Moscow is a small town, for sure, but the damage would have knocked out towns that are much larger. It's a fortunate thing that no one was killed. Luckily for me, it's all missed the northern part of Rush County.

Be safe, everyone!

Shane, We live in Franklin and damage was a minimal. My In-law's live in Princess Lakes (camp Atterbury area). Atterbury was hit extremely hard, Over $1,000,000.00 in damage!!!!! 40 buildings damaged. 2 of which had trailers on their roof. It's bad enough that our soldiers are away from their families and getting ready to be shipped over to Iraq, and then to have to withstand this. Some of the buildings were housing. Hope everyone that is on here is safe. Hopefully we will get some racing in this weekend. I know that I'm over these storms.

Very interesting pictures on that site. The wall cloud pic is very impressive. I have not seen one that large in a few years. Thankfully for all I can find no one was killed. If I find out otherwise my condolences. Watched alot of this on radar the past three nights at work. Friday will be another round of severe weather.

It looks like Morgan, Bartholomew, and Lawrence counties took the biggest hits according to the severe weather reports I read this morning.

Just the damage pics I had from before. I was advised to stay out of Edinburgh so I will do that. The rest are of an approaching severe thunderstorm Wednesday. I took these pics because in some of them I want to play with filters and see what can come out. I did this a few years ago and the texture of the clouds came out well.
