Whew!

Fuckin' close one!

Only 4 to 5 blocks south of me.

Everything is ok at my place.

Town is a mess, all streets blocked south of me, no north-south travel across town.



Arrrrr! My nerves are fuckin' shot!

The I-80 corridor is the new Plainfield when it comes to tornado's.

Glad you are OK, Hun. It was very tense where I live too last night. We were watching TV when one of those civil defense warnings broke in and said there was a tornado 5 miles from my home. I looked out and nothing was going on. It wasn't dark or windy or raining. Thankfully it must have stayed to the south of us. I know Elmwood got hit pretty bad and the Peoria area.

Hey, glad you're ok!



I must have been too drunk because I didn't even notice it was storming that bad.

I was wondering why those sirens kept going off. But we got lucky.



Glad it missed you.

Pics from 2:18 on are from just around the corner and down the road from me. Cops still have road blocked off.

But don't worry, I can still get into town and get beer before the game.

Thanks to all you well wishers! bscene-drinkingcheers:

I am glad that you others that got the sirens last night are ok too.

Thankfully no one killed. (here in IL at least)

I will take sodas/coffee to cops blocking off road in morning.
