Things have been crazy here, Friday we had a “MesoCyclone” AKA an inland hurricane.
with sustained winds of 106 MPH, lots of trees are down, along with structural damage and powerlines.
Thanks, the funny part is I was out of town that day.
Things are kind of surreal, HUGE trees are blown over like toothpicks.
the Reason I posted is the news in Indiana did not show anything, my uncles in Minnesota and Kansas, said there was nothing on the news, about the storms, so people don’t realize the extent of the damages in a 100 square mile area.
Only if he gave you an evacuation notice 3 days before the storm.
Glad you are OK Wolfy, I hope your area recovers quickly. My little town was hit by some really bad floods in 2004 and it took about 3 years to get the people who lost their homes and neighborhoods back to where they were before. The government did a good job in the immeadiate emergency but it was the churchs and businesses that eventually rebuilt the community.
Power is reporting 7-14 days, the lines are up, the substation is blowed-up.
we have running water, but because the treatment station is down, there is a boil order.
I was talking to a friend and they said it was not Obama’s fault, that he did not give us three days evacuation notice.
I would have really liked 3 days notice. Things would have been more secure and/or moved. Yet the insurance adjuster for my landlord said because my windows were open in my apartment, that’s why they were not blown out.
several 76’ tall Pin oak trees, a 100’ tall Tulip Tree and varying size Bur oak Trees are/were laying across the phone and power lines. the power lines have been ferreted out, the phone line looks like a woven nylon rope that was not heat cut, snapped and Fuzzed.
