How did the weather treat you up that way, it looked bad up there for a while.

I think everyone out here is okay, but my sister-in-law, who lives a little northeast of town, saw two tornadoes yesterday.

Were fine here, except my 4 early tamaters got a bit beat up.  The funnel cloud that caused the warning in Lincoln late Sat night didn't touch down and was about 5 miles north of me.  The tornado near Cook missed our farm by about 5-6 also.

My Good Del -
I hope you stay safe in this insane weather...

Does your new home have a proper storm cellar into which you and your family can retreat?
If not, that would be very high on my todo list; those twisters seem to be coming faster and furiouser as of late....

We've got a good place in the basement, but it will be better when I get a chance.

BTW I'm still Poed over the tamaters, but I guess hail is better than a twister pulling them out by the roots. ::) ;D

Sorry Glen
I've been pretty busy this week. This was the first I saw this.

We weren't home. We were at a track meet in Sioux City. We managed to miss all the really bad weather, though at one point we stopped on the highway east of Wayne and watched what appeared to be a tornado trying to form right above the highway ahead of us. Norfolk looked bad, 3' of hail drifted in the ditches. I can't see any signs of damage around home.
