Had a good one blow through here. All kinds of tornado warnings.
Everybody here come out OK?
Our only damage was about 15' of our tulip popular top was broken off. Shame as it is a beautiful tree.

We "dodged-a-bullet" here. It started to storm with heavy rain at 2:00 am & lasted about 45 minutes. Got .75" of rain but NO high winds or much lightning, and no power loss. Hope everyone else is okay & didn't receive any damage from these storms.

Had a couple of noisey little storms. Looks like the main storms did the Delaware County split and went north and south of us.

We got heavy rains during the morning yesterday which flooded out my lower driveway and part of my neighbors field,this water soaked in during the afternoon hours.
Last night it rained from 10:15pm till 4:30am this morning,when it got light enough I could see the same water again but it's not soaking in that quick this time.
I would guess we got 3+ inches since yesterday morning.

I'm over by Patoka Lake, power just came back on. I can't see much of the real world from here but doesn't appear to be alot of damage. I'm on the southwest side of the lake. Our power came on during the night. Just small branches down in the yard. |

We did better this round but it was a dandy. No sirens out here in the middle of nowhere but when the tornado did hit Bedford area I could here Oolitics sirens faintly that was about 5 miles East or so.
We lost power on round two and got it back over night. Counting our blessings compared to some east of Bedford and those in MO.

We lost power about 10:00 PM it finally came on around 8:45 this morning. I had to get the generator out because our basement floods easily. Lots of late night running around in the rain but no damage. All and all pretty lucky.

TD the advance warnings are what saved lives in Bedford . The sirens I believe are a Heads Up thing and the damaging storms have ben sighted.. Pay attention ALWAYS..

Madison was spared this round, but in the storms a few days previous lost a lot of trees and some houses were damaged severely.

replaced my roof with Metal after hurricane best thing I have done in awhile After Hugo and this recent gale I'm strongly considering getting a metal roof myself. Mostly need to decide on a color wifey and I can agree on and how to pay for it. |

Had three separate tornado warnings for Tippecanoe Co last night but I don't think we had much damage that I could see this AM. I did dump 3.2" out of the rain gauge this morning and .9" Wed morning so we've had over 4" total in the last two days...working on another .5" in the tube from today so far.
