Morning truck fans. We seem to have made out exceptionally well in our neighborhood. 30 miles east of us there was confirmed tornadoes, flooding all around us and only a few trees down in our neighborhood.

We haven't, up to now anyway, lost electric. Winds are still blowing hard with gusts up to 50 mph. Steady winds around 30 mph.

All in the viewing area be safe. Hopefully the sun will come out and help dry us out.

Morning George,
that's good news.
I think we had a tornado in Marshallton or Newport.
Both less then a mile from here.

Yeah George,
it was a little nerve racking. My son called me all worried.
But no real damage to my house.
