Bad Weather

We might have had a tornado pass over head last night around midnight. (June 17th, 2007) There is a swath of damage in town. Trees are down all over the place, streets are blocked. Our patio stuff was all rearranged. Our HEAVY outdoor grill was moved about 8 feet and replaced with our upside down patio table. (They traded places.) The storm took a piece of the neighbor's tree and planted it vertically in our yard. (See picture) There is a 5th-wheeler on it's side. One house had 2 shutters blown off .....each from a different side of the house. This was not a straight wind. Waylan Starr says that because of the type of damage and the path of damage, his theory is that the tornado was just over head and didn't touch down . Too Close!
