Scary Weather

[Libby Pritchett]

I'm not usually one to post things like this, but you guys... i'm a little freaked out tonight. If you guys could please send up some prayers or positive thoughts, I would sure appreciate it.

We're having HORRIBLE storms. Tornado sirens going off for hours and MASSIVE hail damage. We just had golf ball size hail, and several of my neighbors have lots of windows blown out, fences knocked down, cars destroyed. Everything is under water. I'm fortunate that we haven't had any major damage (that we've noticed), but I have a feeling that we're going to need a new roof.

The next wave is supposed to hit in the next few minutes here. Marti just had to leave for work (stupid night shift), so I'm concerned for his safety.

Thanks for listening guys. I'm gonna go snuggle with my kid and try to ride this out.

HUGS and prayers Libby.
We're getting the North end of your guys' weather and are supposed to get the severe stuff tomorrow.
You know that I'm sending you positive vibes...I went through this in Jan.

[BrattyMeg]

(((Libby))) I know how it is girl we had terrible weather last weekend...do you have a garage for the cars?

[SaraAmarie]

Prayers sent for you and your family Libby! Bad weather is scary! {{{Hugs}}}

[Joan]

That's scary, Libby! I'll keep you in my thoughts and I hope you come through this okay. I'll never forget the huge windstorms here. Weather and storms rarely scare me, but I was petrified that night. If there'd been golf ball size hail along with it, I don't know what I would have done.

[Stephanie Ogren]

Hugs and prayers for you!! Stay safe!

[Sarah8914]

Oh so scary! I feel for you!

We had some bad hail and storms about this time last year and my hubby wasn't home. It was terrifying--but we didn't have the sirens (I don't think). Apparently where he was there were small tornados!

[kscwgirl]

Hope everything is okay Libby!!!

[Kat Stokes]

[Sue Setiadji]

I hope things settle down soon for you Libby. It must be super scary. Will pray for your safety and a quick end to the storm - sounds like Mansy might need the same thoughts if its headed her way - keep safe both of you K!!

[tracey]

((Hugs)) Libby! I have been thinking about you and your family!! I hope you guys are safe and this passes over quickly! It is heading here tomorrow! :(

[amyb]

I know how you feel! We get bad tornadoes here in TN and it is so scary - especially when you have little ones to keep safe. You're in my thoughts and prayers!

[scrapmonkey]

Hope you hunkered down for the night without much more ado. And I hope and pray things look better in the morning...

[FeeJardine]

Gosh Libby you poor thing :( I can't imagine how terrifying it must be having storms like that. Luckily we don't experience things like that in my neck of the woods. Anyhoo I REALLY hope that you and your family are safe.

Take care chickie :)

hugs

Fee :)

Ohhh No Libby-I just read this...Big Hugs Girl!

[Amy Carey]

Libby I hope everything went okay last night. we are supposed to get that stuff by Saturday and I am really hoping it weakens by then. Update us and let us know you're okay :)

[digi-gee]

I hope you got some sleep last night. I hate storms. Let us know you're alright. They're coming our way today.

[Libby Pritchett]

Hey guys.

Well, we lost power for a while last night. Schools are closed today. Streets are closed (flooding). It's just a bad deal. And it's STILL storming with more tornados heading this way later this morning.

I'm off to work now (driving SLOWLY) and Kendra's going to have to go with me. Thankfully, it's my short day, so I get off at noon.

Thanks for all your thoughts and prayers. This is NOT fun.

[ZaCola3]

Ohhh NO Libby!
My thoughts will be with you as you go about your buisness today.
Big Hugs!

((HUGS))

I hope you didn't get too much damage, Libby - we had an arm of it move through here this morning at about 4am..so we're waiting for daylight to see the extent of the damage. DH said there were TONS of trees down everywhere.

I really really hope you guys made it through with minimal damage and that everyone is safe.

Darcy where are you?

[ColleenSwerb]

I'm so sorry Libby. I'm glad you made it through ok and I'll keep thinkin of ya if the storms start up again later today.

[Penny Springmann]

Libby, I'm glad you made it through and hope you were able to get to work. Big storms are scary. It's that time of year again. :(

[ajf9597]

Hope everything is ok and you are all safe!

[~Julie~]

How scary.... Im praying you guys don't have too much damage.

[newfiemountiewife]

Libby, I hope everything is ok, and everyone is safe!!!

[mummytothree]

aww man I hope you arrived safely to work and I'm sure well all be waiting anxiously till you get home and post!!! Big hugs for you all and I hope those storms pass quickly!!!

[Melissa Bennett]

Oh my gosh, how scary!!! Glad you are all okay and hope the damage is not too bad.

[Sarah8914]

Oh so scary! I'm glad you're okay, good luck today! Where do you live??


Darcy, we got it pretty bad here for at least a good hour. We lost power for about 2 1/2 hours so it made for a LONG night!

[dover6473]

omg...im glad you and your family is ok! i live in west tenn. and we are expecting some really bad weather here starting around 3pm. they are predicting all the things im terrified of, not to mention hubby will still be at work and ill be in the process of picking up my child from school when all this is supposed to hit! Seems like we just went thru all of this back in feb. Lots of people around here are still trying to rebuild there homes and business from the last bout of tornadoes! I would love to know where a place with perfect weather is at, i would so pack up my family and move there!! lmbo!

[Sarah8914]

Darcy! You got it bad!!!! I just talked to my mom and she lost a big tree in her front yard! Scary!

[meems]

oh no, sounds awful, hope you made it to work okay and get home safely.

[~ashleigh]

Yuck! I am glad you are okay! That's the system that is hitting us today. I hope it isn't severe - we really don't need any more rain!!

[Darcy Baldwin]

Darcy where are you?

We're NE of Dallas...and we got hit, but not as bad as Libby. Our neighbor's tree is in our backyard now, on top of the boys' swingset. There are trees down everywhere, some roofs off businesses, and our little commuter airport got slammed, but it doesn't seem to be as bad as Arkansas keeps getting.

Though our backyard is now officially a swamp LOL It'll take days and days for that clay soil to finally dry out LOLOL

[my4boys]

We are getting rain and have flood warnings all over the place here ( our river is so high and I don't think it has crested yet :() I heard we were supposed to get some bad stuff later but I never know who to believe when it comes to the weather so I will just wait and see!!! I am glad all is ok for now and I hope the weather gets better for you....

[Libby Pritchett]

Well, I made it to work and home again, so that's a plus. :) Oh, I'm in Arkansas for those who asked.

The rain has stopped now. It's still really windy, but I think I heard that we're supposed to get more rain tonight (I need to check the radar).

I still feel pretty lucky (even with a lot of my shingles from my roof now laying in my front yard). My friend down the road had every window on the front of her house blown out (6 total), and several people had MASSIVE damage to their cars (ours were in the garage during the hail). Kendra's school had windows broken and the skylights busted (with lots of water getting into the school).

So all-in-all, it could've been much worse, and I'm glad that no one was hurt.

Thanks SO much for your concern everyone!

[Darcy Baldwin]

Oh wow, Libby! Hoping you guys don't get much again tonight..just a little spinkle ;)

[AmyM]

I'm glad y'all are okay Libby. That must be really scary. We get bad storms in the summer but I've never been through a tornado or anything that bad. Stay safe! I hope you get a break from that crummy weather soon!
