Spring Storm Update

I am very happy to report that we suffered no damage at The Compound last night with the big storms and tornados blew through the area, thank the Lord.  It was pretty wild for a few minutes.  As always, the weatherazzi had been building this up and they were right for once. 

I managed to sleep for an hour, and got up at 11:45 to find that the 'Rents were still up watching the latest weather coverage on TV.  As soon as we heard the weatherazzi say that PRP would be hit in about 30 minutes, we sprang into action.  We put on shoes, got out flashlights and lanterns, and got the portable digital TV. The lights flickered a time or two but thank goodness we didn't lose power. 

The storms that came through PRP wasn't nearly as strong as the ones that hit just across the river from us in New Albany, IN. It's still dark as I write this but I don't see any limbs in the yard, and all of the garbage cans are accounted for.  Southern Indiana seemed to get hit the hardest.

Once again, TWIT would like to say thank you, Lord, for keeping everyone safe at The Compound.
