When I checked the weather channel yesterday (I think) there was a big red area over GA. signifying major storms.  Arkansas really got hit...scary.  I feel so bad for the people interviewed whose homes were flattened!  Sad, sad...    Cal

Lottie, so happy to hear that you and your DH are safe!! Having one pass over you must have been very! scary.
Stay safe and maybe we should meet at the sink to celebrate your good fortune :-)

I have an old school mate that lives in Murfreesboro, TN and she emailed that she was OK, but that 2 homes in her neighborhood were flattened. She said she spent the time it

Since I've been on the boards and met women from all over the country, I get worried every time I see a storm on the map. I start trying to remember who is where. Glad you got through okay. My DSis was director of Red Cross in Alabama for years and she moved to Northern MI - never wanted to see another tornado.

The one and only tornado to hit our city passed over our house on the way. The whole family was here to celebrate eldest DSs birthday, when the sirens were activated. The women, kids and cats dutifully went into the basement take cover. DH, and both DSs went down to the end of our drive to look for it. It was very high over our house, but they could tell when it touched down 2 miles South, because the air was full of dust and debris. I could have just strangled the 3 of them - they were so full of themselves being sure they'd be fine. We just asked if all their insurance was paid up.
