Tennessee, Ilinois, and everywhere impacted by the devastating storms that swept through yesterday and last night. To all those Polkies out there, let us know you guys are ok.
God bless all those affected by these storms.

10 inches of snow here in Wisconsin. Just saw photos of devastation in Kentucky. Like their town was wiped off the face of the earth

I have been watching the squall line for some time and was prepared.....then it hit.
Basically (for us), it went from no rain immediately to a VERY heavy downpour for about a minute or less, no change in winds and slight rain/mist after that. No different than a thunderstorm rolling through, other than how quick it went from nothing to something, back to nothing.
Prayers for those who experienced from what it sounds like, much worse. I don't watch the news and this is the first I heard of devastation. Sad...

Prayers go out to all. Strange year. All our snow is gone from the rain & 40/50+ degrees today..

It got within about 10 miles of us. Some towns in the 30 to 50 mile range of us were basically removed. Terrible, they are saying it could be one of the worst in history. One tornado stayed on the ground for hours and covered over 200 miles.

This is horrific destruction
I feel for all that are affected

I'm about 30-40 miles north of the path in KY. It got pretty nasty for a while but we suffered no damage. My yard is littered with debris (shingles, insulation, roofing paper) from it.

Prayers for everyone in the path and all the responders, volunteers...
Our Omaha home was hit bad, but not leveled in 1975 by an F4 tornado.

It’s been determined that the Mayfield, Dawson Springs event was an EF4 with 190 mph wind.

I'm in Nashville, TN, and know that areas west of here also had destruction from the same tornadoes.

Agreed...but due more to solar cycles than our 'Earthly' activities. But make no mistake...I am all about reducing polution. We need to conserve what we've got left...but the best way to do that is up for debate."This may not matter to you, but it does to me for various reasons, many of them illogical or irrational, but the vinyl hobby is not really logical or rational..." - member on Vinyl Engine

Gezus.
I found a sheet of return address labels from Dawson Springs in my yard. That is about 40 miles "as the crow flies" from me. -

I'm about 10 miles south of Owensboro....near Pleasant Ridge.

190mph winds!!! I get nervous when it's gets over 70. I can't imagine what those affected went though and are now about to go through Yep, my name really is Bob.

Took a drive yesterday. The tornado passed through only 10 miles south of where I live. Total destruction where it went through. I consider myself very lucky.
