Neat! I live near Sandy's sissy :). I use to live in Houston too....long long time ago. I still miss it, even with all the traffic.:winky:

:eek: Wow what are the odds? Where do you live? I saw you said North AL. and you used to live in Houston?

That's life with a spouse in the military.:Head-Spin: We've lived in almost every corner of the US except the Great North West, Alaska and Hawaii. The Huntsville area is home now...and hopefully its the stopping point!

It's so white outside, it feels like I'm living in a Giant Jet puffed marshmallow.

It's still coming down hard...

Ain't that the trust TKTC....Where haven't we lived is more like it! ;)

I just went out to assess the damage and the wind nearly knocked me down! No snow blowing today, mother nature is doing it for me!

I know,Im about 1 hour and a half from that town in arkansas. but do to hearing loss I didnt even know it was storming.
But I watched on tv this morning.
It is scary forsure..
Im glad e1 is ok for now,anyways.

But im good here.thankgod!!!

To those who checked in, thank you for letting us know that you're safe. There are still a few "known" to me who haven't posted.

Living in another country makes it hard to work out what states are closest to the storm-hit areas, so until I know you're all safe, I'll continue to worry.

I've lived in a cyclone belt in Australia, and a cyclone is our equivilent to your tornado, just that cyclones are tropical and hit in the summer time (like now), so I know what type of force you're talking about when you mention the winds.

I just want you all to know that I'm thinking of you, and am anxiously waiting to hear that every single member, and their family, are unharmed.

Mega hugs to one and all. :grouphug:

So glad that everyone's checking in and doing OK! :grouphug: I have relatives that live in Tennessee and have been following that line of storms since I heard about it last night.

In Ohio we've had lots of rain and the temps are dropping now with snow expected next. This has been the craziest winter weather we've had in quite a while.

OK here
 

Our part of Arkansas didn't get much bad weather - it all went east of here. We had some rain and wind, then last night freezing rain, and snow this morning. My mom lives near Clarksville, AR and was working the elections yesterday. She said they got strong storms with hail, but no tornados.

Atkins is about 30 min east of Clarksville, and they got hit hard. I did my student teaching there back in the early 90's. I hope all my former students made it OK.

We had lots of snow on Thursday morning, very cold. Then Friday, the kids built a snowman and didn't even need their coats on because it had warmed up about 30 degrees. We set a record high temp yesterday (76, I think) and today it's snowing!

Oh well, never boring.
