current tornado watch goes from atlanta to South Carolina expiring like 7am I think... last i heard their might be major hail at six flags...

We are now getting a break. We had one short storm that blew through here in about 5 minutes with lots of rain and hail. We had a Tornado warning at the time but nothing that bad here. Same cannot be said for other locales. Downtown Atlanta took another (albeit brief) touchdown. There were fatalities reported in Polk and Floyd Counties near Rome (about 60 miles NW of Atlanta) with heavy damage reported. We are still under a Tornado Watch until 1 AM. We are now under brilliant and bright sunshine. That's bad because even a little bit of this will increase instability and probably aide in more storm development.

Yeah, been thinking about you, and a handful of other friends I have from that area. Glad to hear you're okay and weathering the storm.

Yay for a restful safe night!

**hugs** Glad you're safe.

MickeyLumbo · 03-15-2008, 06:24 PM

glad you are ok!!

it's looking very dreary outside here...

it is windy with very black thunderclouds right over the house. i do hope it rains and thankfully, don't expect any heavy wind event.

but a good clap of thunder could send me under the covers!

bet the Park is thinning out tonight.

Just got back from the park. Yes, it was thinning out quite a bit. It's quite cool out, and with the wind chill I swear it feels like 35 outside! And with the strong winds and ominous clouds it looked like we might get a tornado. I even said it looks like the one from Atlanta might pay us a visit! And a passer by said "Is this Southern Caliifornia? It never does this here!"

We had a few rumbles of thunder earlier, and it's been raining off and on; but nothing on the magnitude of what's going on in Atlanta.

Mousey Girl · 03-15-2008, 08:30 PM

It has been windy and cold here all day...not that I have been awake all day.
