We had strong wind today. Watched it slowly peel away a neighbor's roof.

The power blinked alot then went out several hours. I think they probably just turned it off to avoid starting any fires (the blinking was probably lines blowing together).

enormous tornado outbreak (still ongoing) and tomorrow (later today) is expected to be as bad or worse. Tornadoes touching down all the way from the burbs of Chicago down to Arkansas

My mum's tv antenna on the roof was a mangled ball of bent alum and cheap plastic :emoji_laughing:

I managed to bend it back into shape somewhat.

My parents live 20 miles from Tylertown, MS where a tornado killed 3 people yesterday. They live off the highway that goes through where my parents live, through Tylertown and onto Hattiesburg. I was at my parents place. Got 3" of rain and a thunderstorm but nothing out of the ordinary. I slept through it.

Nothing much there other than a few odds and ends and a giant place that sells reclaimed stuff mostly old school toilets that actually flush, shower heads that shower and other assorted old stuff. It does a shitload of business.

Whole world comes apart and I slep through it. Found out there was another tornado near the same time 25 miles to the south in Kentwood, LA. Didn't know it slept through it. Also there was a small earthquake 20 miles to the north near Brookhaven, MS. Not sure when that actually was. I miss everything.

We were under a "holy fuck, get in your basement" warning. Not a thing. I don't believe the wind exceeded 8 miles per hour. Total nothing burger. This is after Sunday's shit storm that took out thousands of trees and we had 75,000 people without power they did not predict at all, and didn't sound the tornado sirens once. Tonight they sounded them several times. But no tornadoes. Really top notch reporting.

i'm still fixing my storm door lulz, do you know they screw in the metal fram with metal (as in for metal) screws. wtf, thats why this door feel off, i'm gonna be using wood screws

meanwhile cuz of the storm, my front door (now w/o a storm door) is all wet and moist, i can't even open it sometimes (cuz the water gets absorbed and expands the the wooden door, i guess, or i'm really weak at 7am)
