Default wwwwwwwweather!

WOW we've had a weather day like none I have ever seen. There have been three tornadoes in my county in the last hour, they are still spawning all around us too. We are so completely removed from most weather patterns here in eastern NC this is VERY unusual and the weathermen are freaking out! I have spent almost the last two hours hiding out in the bathroom with three kids and a dog and thank the LORD I can finally come out. This junk always seems to happen during my scrapping time!! LOL Anyone else been in this massive line that's been crossing the country the past few days?

We had the line through here (KS) but no tornadoes where I'm at. We had it pretty mild, I think, just a lot of rain and lightning.

I have a friend who is in the area you are, and I've been seeing her updates on facebook all afternoon.

Um yeah..that passed through here yesterday and my blood pressure is just now getting back to normal. It was one after another after another yesterday...we're used to it but yesterday was particularly bad. Over 100 confirmed tornadoes and they are estimating the one that tracked literally all across the state was as strong as an EF4 at one point. A town just north of us was completely demolished by that storm. We spent lots of time in the bathroom yesterday but thankfully the worst never got too close to us.

Ugh - I've been wondering about y'all in the south... I'm happy to hear that everyone is safe!

It has just been a crazy April, hasn't it? A week ago Sunday, we had 6 confirmed tornadoes in my area... and then today it was snowing! I sure hope this isn't a trend that Spring/Summer is going to be very "active"... maybe it's just getting out of it's system and it will be a quiet season... *fingers crossed*

Um yeah...before it hit you all, it dropped 16" of snow in some parts of Nebraska. And 2" of rain where I am at in eastern Nebraska. Part of the interstate was closed on Friday...
