not really our shutters were closed still from the winter. had a few screens torn. some camps got hit real hard. on some all the windows were smashed on the west side and water got in. ours is stucco so no damage on that. the camps with vinyl siding looked like someone sprayed them with 1000 rounds from a machine gun.

Damn, over 30 tornadoes in northern Alabama today. Many dead over the region. My son is an engineer at Brown's Ferry nucleur plant just outside Huntsville. The twisters knocked out all reactors and it looks like almost 1/2 million folks are in the dark.

Limbs all over the yard at my place. My privacy fence around my yard is laying down. We still have power but no water since night before last. When I am outside you can hear generators running. I heard most of the people around me lost power and might not get it back till Saturday sometime. Several roads are still closed due to trees across them. But there are routs to move around. Most these guys up here keep a chain saw in their truck.
