I have family in southwestern Mo and they're all ok. We're fine here in Illinois but the wind is unbelievable. Picked up my wrought iron patio table and blew it onto the grass. No one even wants to go out for Mother's Day lunch...just too miserable out there! Guess it's gonna be takeout which is fine by me!!!
Happy Mother's Day to all of you!

Down here by me we got loooots of wind & not much else. Just a bit North of us got some rough stuff & I heard one tornado. How are you faring up there Toots? Is it going to hit in your area? Glad those of you who checked in are ok & those in front of this stuff stay safe!

Happy Mother's Day Toots and all the other mothers here. We're okay up here in the NW corner of GA. Got a good bit of lightning, rain (hurray for that!) and wind during the overnight. We're very windy today. But looks like most of the bad GA stuff was mainly from Atlanta southward. Hope y'all haven't had too rough a day over your way today. This system really packed a punch about halfway across the country!

Sorry I forgot AR Sis2. Y'all have been hit hard this year, including by this most recent system. Glad you and your folks came through the storms okay. It also looks like IN, WV, VA, NC, SC and parts of S GA got some more stuff today. Hope all the members from here and all your loved ones are all safe after this whole bad system.
Looks like there might be another round of severe weather this coming week in some of these areas again, including AR. So y'all monitor the development of this next system too. Hopefully it won't be nearly as strong as this past one. But it's just being a rough storm year this year.

I live an hour west of OKC so we missed out on the storms. We did have some pretty hefty winds, but not enough to damage anything. I sure feel for those poor people east of here, though. Just terrible.

Britty, I'm just glad y'all had something you can laff about instead of something awful to report.... and we'll never bring it up again.... will we, gang?.... heheheheheheheeeeeeeeeeeee.....
SW Missouri was hit very hard but I'm up near St. Louis so it didn't hit us. We had bad wind and rain but we're OK....except it's so COLD. I've heard from friends and they are OK too ... I wish everyone was.
I'm in central Ar and the storms left me with few rose petals, lots of debris all over the yard, but my home is intact. We sure need a breather from all the storms.. NO MORE please !!! Glad everyone is safe.
