Storm damage?
Anyone else get any damages? We took quite a bit. NWS still debating tornado or straight line winds but it really doesn't matter, it messed us up. Two reported injuries, lots of property damage, no power, roads blocked, a real mess but give us a few days and we will be back in the saddle. Everyone else OK?

We had several small tornadoes confirmed around us. The storm was moving east, but the wind at our house was blowing to the WEST for a while. Not 100% sure what happened there, but it was cool to watch. Neighbors tree fell and took out the power line in the first 30 seconds of the storm. Another tree in the neighborhood came down, along with a LOT of branches and leaves. Thankfully no major damage!

Apparently the NWS just confirmed that we had an F1 tornado. Just waiting for the power company. We've done all we can do to this point. I can't get to my house so I'm staying at the local fire station. Maybe this evening or tomorrow.

Some pics of the damage here. We are still finding stuff also.
We have gotten all the roads open but it may be a week or so before power get restored to some areas. NWS says we had two different F1 tornados pass through and now that I think about it I remember thinking "its over now" and coming out just to have to duck and cover again 30 seconds later. Two injuries but no fatalities. Several homes and cars squashed and a bunch damaged. Lots of trees uprooted but not down and crowns twisted off and still hanging. We expect more thunderstorms coming next week. No rest for a FF here.
