The wind don't blow in South Dakota......The nasty stuff that dropped tornadoes in Western SD yesterday lost strength when it got here but I think even though the wind was blowing at gusts of over 40 mph all day yesterday when the storm moved through it blew at least to ove 60mph. But only for about 10 min. We had a sprinkle of rain then it was cool but it was gone.......then we had some drizzle during the night and it is cloudy and cool-humid today.....I want the storms to be over I hate the wind.


The lady across from me couldn't take it and got in her car and was going to a friends house close by.....but a tree fell in front of her and she hit it went up and was high centered on it.....I saw what I thought was a police car come and she (in her house coat, it was around 11pm last night) got out and went in the camper and came right back out. Then I thought that maybe she went to town and got a motel and forgot about her 2 little dogs and took a cab out......but found out this morning that it was the police. She says she is ok but she is very stiff and sore. Her air bags didn't deploy...guess she didn't hit head on enough or something.....scary anywa......she is 70 years old.


Have a nice day !.

That poor gal must have had the b'geebers scared out of her! I'm glad she is okay. Spring storms are never any fun. Altho, if they'll stay a bit of a way away from me I must confess I like to 'watch' them! I'm glad you and Donna both got missed!
