Whew!!! What a morning it's been!!! We had a storm come in this morning and I don't think that I've ever seen so many flashes in a storm in my whole life! The rain pouring down woke me about 5:15 am. I got up and checked the internet to see what the storm looked like and we had a small amount of quarter sized hail, not much. Glen left for breakfast in town with the guys and I went to bed. About an hour later the wind really picked up and I got up and closed the window in the bedroom. I didn't have my glasses on so I couldn't see real good outside. About 10 minutes later my phone in the basement rang which meant that I didn't have electricity and I decided that I wasn't going to try and run down and answer it. Then my cell phone rang so since it was in the kitchen I went in to answer it and it was Glen wondering if we were alright. I told him that we were fine and he told me that New Albany, a small town that's less than 2 miles from us, was hit by a tornado and that he and Jason, my SIL, were going up there. New Albany is a very small town that has a post office and a church. There's probably about 150 people who live there, maybe. Well, I should say that they HAD a post office and a church. There was one person killed in a trailer house that wasn't hooked down. I'm not convinced that it was a tornado because in Fredonia there's damage too and we're hearing of damage from all over. I think that it was a straight wind. Anyway here's some articles and I have pictures that I'll get put on later......
