Get that job in NETN. We don't deal with a tenth of what you do. We had a biology teacher retire today.

true but even being in your home when it hits is by far the most terrifying experience of my life. And I always was fascinated by tornadoes n wanted to chase one day. Not anymore

People think we're chasing the tornadoes, but at the end of the day, they're chasing us.

Were you a witness to the recent Tuscaloosa tornado? My heart goes out to you. I know these times are tough.

Wow. I cannot imagine what that experience must have been like. Hope everything gets better

We can go halves on one and put it in covington, right in the middle between ripley and brighton.

You will have to leave a little earlier

We could move it to Braden or Mason

Connect them all with elaborate tunnels large enough to drive a golf cart down.

I knew we kept you around for a reason

Not severe, but Snowbird just announced the ski season will run through July 4th.

Instead of hitting the beaches or the lakes this 4th of July, let's all go to the slopes! *sarcasm*

 

[Slydell]

Yeah, I am so ready for some nice warm weather here. It's been a freaky weather year for many areas in the country.

 

[lylsmorr]

To the West Tennesseans - just some info if you are thinking about storm shelters

Tornado shelters and tornado saferooms from of Storm Shelters of Tennessee

The F5 that took out Joplin......the wife's family lives not too far from there. Her cousin lost her house (luckily, was at another family member's place about 20 miles away when it hit), and my in-laws lost every tree in their front yard. Kind of amazing, they had, I think, 10-15 trees in their yard.....I think every one of them came down, but not one touched the house. My father in law actually stood in his kitchen and watched the tornado go through his front yard (mind you, it's about 75 feet from the kitchen window to the fence.....crazy old Sailor....). I'll post pics of it once I get back to my room tonight.

Other family members had assorted damage, I think it took out a couple windows at the wife's Aunt's house, a section of the roof of the barn at another family member's house. Luckily, though, everyone made it through w/o getting hurt.

It's great that your family is ok

That's about as close as you can get.
