I just saw this, Barb. I pray everything is okay there.

Sister Alvear 08-24-2007 04:11 PM

Anyone hear from Barb?

Praying Barb!

That line just went through here. 70 mph winds. lots of rain. It's a very narrow line, but pretty powerful. There was a report of a tornado touchdown on the other side of our county.

It looks like it's headed towards Barb and Subby now.

The good news is that once it's through, it's clear sailing behind that

Barb 08-24-2007 06:21 PM

Thank you for making this a sticky and for all who prayed!!

We had to evacuate as we live in a double-wide modular...my brother, Rob, came and picked us up as the winds were 80+ mph. You would not believe the rain...it seemed to come down in buckets and it just swirled. The sky was so dark and the air thick...

It still feels 'funny' out there and we are under a thunderstorm watch till 11:00, but the tornado missed us, thank the Lord!! It did some damage in Fenton, which is about 15 minutes SW from here.

God bless you all for praying for us...we are fine!!

*I had just taken an apple pie out of the oven...when we got to their house, my SIL said, "Did you bring the pie?!"

I said, "I ain't stupid...if this is 'it', I don't wanna go hungry!!"

We had hot apple pie and ice cream...*

Barb 08-24-2007 06:21 PM

Just saw this morning's news report...in Fenton, there are trees down all over, power lines down, it's estimated over 100 homes damaged (one of my brothers lives in Fenton).

BUT no one was seriously injured. Authorities believe it is because they received advance notice it was coming and most headed to their basements.

I give the glory to God for His protecting hand and allowing them to see this coming...

Subdued 08-25-2007 08:17 AM

All is well here. There was a tornado warning, and we all headed to the basement for about 1/2 hour, then it passed. We just lost our cable connection, so I couldn't post.

:D

She told me today that everything went out...cable, phone...everything.

Our lights went off and on 2 or 3 times before we left but didn't stay off.

My mother, God bless her little heart, wanted to stand out there on the porch while the lightning was popping from heaven to earth!!

I made her get in the closet in our den and sit on a chair until Rob came to get us...I was in there, too, with a flash light and my cell. She's been laughing about this while telling everyone and their granddad about it on the phone. :telephone

Sister Alvear 08-25-2007 01:24 PM

Glad all is well...
