Lots for floods and severe storms though<br /><br />joated, that must be the pits when you aren't home! Last night we had another round, but without the bad winds. What a year so far!<br /><br />Cathy, I hope he has an event'free and pleasant trip and that you all have a wonderful visit. <br /><br />Jeff, thanks, stay safe out there...hope you (and we) see some dry pretty darned soon<br /><br />Ed, yowsa! I hate hail, although I hate the wind more. We had a crop insurance adjuster here once whose whole car was totally dinged by hail. <br /><br />Lisa, so sorry to see the damage you folks had. Wow, We had some strong wind, which was pretty scary, but only lost a couple trees up in back<br /><br />Linda, thanks! I sat by the window and watched the sky during the lightning flashes. They say a tornado approaching sounds like a train...well heck, hundreds of trains a day go by here. How could I tell?<br /><br />AKA, oh, so good to hear from you! I have been wondering how you were doing! Five inches! That is awful. Wonder what we got in last night's go round.<br /><br />LIndaG, before the past couple of years I could count on one hand the ones near here. Now we are getting watches quite often and there have been a mess of them up around Herkimer. We sit right where the storms come trooping down the valley so....threecolliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05811004278088768813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15171402.post-3548531066560488322011-05-27T20:06:43.935-04:002011-05-27T20:06:43.935-04:00I'm glad you are safe.

Last night's storms brought us 5 inches of rain and the power was out from 11 pm to about 6 am.

Your ability to observe and report . . . well, I've said it before . . truly a delight.<br /><br />We moms are destined to keep an eye to the sky when loved ones are not in the nest and the weather is menacing.<br /><br />Our boy (44 years old!) will be driving from NH this afternoon to spend the week in Ohio. Yes, you may well believe that the fact of him in a car on the turnpike in this crazy weather - is a bit of a concern.<br /><br />Yes, I'll be at my computer watching those colored doppler pixels.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00548755592157386484noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15171402.post-30009777984863700662011-05-27T09:53:43.572-04:002011-05-27T09:53:43.572-04:00Power went/is out at the Aerie, too.

Checked with a neighbor this morning and there are hundreds of homes affected by the power outage caused by the strong winds. Hail happened just across the NY border, she says, but not around the Aerie. <br /><br />You and your's stay safe in the next round of weather.joatedhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03415726428637484056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15171402.post-86421687444742396902011-05-27T08:42:37.145-04:002011-05-27T08:42:37.145-04:00Same here in S IN, much too much rain and corn can...Same here in S IN, much too much rain and corn can't be planted and too many tornados in area.
