Is everyone here okay after the storms?

cmitch · 11-18-2013, 11:43 AM

I know we have some guys that lived in the hardest hit areas. Is everyone okay? It's a miracle there were so few deaths.

I lost power for a little bit, first thought and actions?

Yup, i went to the bar, charged my phone and had some beer.

Some crazy wind for sure.

This was about 30 miles from me.

Damn Zane, glad to hear you are well. Hope everyone else is too.

I live in Kokomo. We had two EF2's stop by for a visit. Here are some photos.

My side of town untouched. We were lucky.

Got nasty storms/winds but (thankfully) no tornadoes. Winds held at 65mph for a solid 13+ hours.

Being in the Peoria metropolitan area, I was eerily close to where the big f4 landed. Multiple coworkers have lost their homes. Friends and family are all fine. By the time it fully formed, it was close to a half mile wide. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLhManxVZSQ

70 MPH sustained winds by me, but no damage in my area that I noticed. Prayers to those who were not so lucky.

Happily we jut had high winds- seemed to go north of us. Prayers indeed to all those that need to pick up the pieces!

RevSmoke · 11-18-2013, 06:41 PM

Praying for those who were affected by the tornadoes.

Glad our brothers and sisters here are safe. Thoughts for all those affected.

Good to hear everyone is okay. Damage is indicative of EF3 or stronger in some of those photos.
