Is everyone OK?

Yes, life is good, I got to watch about an hr of Heather Tesh on the Weather Channel, that was the good, also, about an inch of rain in my gauge ain't all that bad either. A bit sideways, but if Clint had known it was going to be that bad, he coulda "lost control", coming for the checkers, and "wadded" the 33 car up, and they wouldn't/couldn't have ck'd it, did they ck Mark Martin Sunday?

Hope you are all OK. They are showing it on the news here in California now.

The front passed through here with about 10-15 minutes worth of rain around lunchtime. Just for good measure we had another blast of sirens. I can't think we had much storm damage but then again I haven't checked the news outlets or the internet this afternoon.

This afternoon we've had good soaking rain off and on, mostly on. The temperature dropped quite a bit from the 68 degree morning temperature.

I wonder if I started the rain by tellng Mother Nature there was a $10,000 to win show at Lawrenceburg tonight.

My neighbor across the street lost a 160' tree into his next door neighbors outbuilding, swimming pool and back yard. All the power lines also were torn down and they expect it will be into this evening before our addition has full power.

Also one of the guys here at the office has a tree down on the middle of his house separating the bedrooms from the rest of the house. Luckily no one was at home at the time and no injuries reported. Mother Nature sure provided a blast.

Only about slide into another vehicle on the wet roads (I was doing under the speed limit, but either my tires suck in rain or my brakes suck in rain. I am more apt to believe the brakes because others have issues with brakes).

Glad to hear everyone seems to have come out ok in the Midwest.
Lots of wind here in Littleton. The mountains are getting hammered with snow, maybe as much as 2 ft. before this storm moves on. Lots of accidents and some of the passes are closed because of high winds and whiteout conditions. Sure glad I'm flying to the Oval Nationals next week.

Your storm made it up here to Mich daughter's friend had to take cover

in her store in Indy as the sirens went off. Most of my leaves are off my trees & down the street so that made my job easier

. Got a lot of people up here w/o power still.

Pictures I have seen on the news today from the Mid-west looked rather nasty, glad everyone has made it thru the storm safely.

We had some wicked wind last night too! Trees down everywhere!!
Thank goodness our partially built pole barn is still standing!

It was like a blizzard coming to work this morning! It's still snowing!

It looks more like New Year's Day than Halloween!

I'm glad everyone is okay!!
