Here is what happened the night of Monday the 20th of July here in The Metro Area..
Please take note that everyone here is ok and that all were safe. Josh and his girlfriend were out driving around but made it home befroe the worst part. Michelle was at home and said they closed down her work (Hooters) and her boyfriend James was out on the road but again made it to a safeplace befroe the worst.
Debbie and I were upstairs on the computers when she heard the screetching, sucking sounds of a train moving closer to us. She looked over at me and ask: What the hell is that sound..? I told her that somethings not right. I was on-line with my son Ryan on Facebook at the time and told him that I would be right back, It sounds like something bad is about to happen.. I went downstairs and popped my body outside the back door. I felt the pressure try to pull on me. I ran back upstairs and told Debbie we need to get downstairs.. NOW..
I didn't have time to get back to Ryan so he thought I ditched him. We went downstairs and the only safeplace we have here is in the Jacuzzi tub in the master bath. so in we went.
We were in there less then a minute then the power went out. So now were sitting in the tub, in the dark listining to the devistation going on just outside in the dark.
15 minutes later it was over. We went to the livingroom and looked outside.
There was over 4 inches of hail on the ground.
Here is what we saw. Now mind you, the first set of photos are the before shots taken only hours prior to the storm. The rest are, well you can see what happened..
