there goes the weatheradio again,

severe t-storm warning for southern floyd, northern polk, until 1:10pm or so.  storm located near cave spring - lindale and aregon in the path. 



I think this "QUIET" scares me more ...

An officer was reporting dime size hail in Cave Spring. The initial cell has passed and is near C'ville.  Maybe another behind it ?

no windows open coggers.....that allows the air to sweep through your house and tear it up easier...

I think the current wisdom is that it really doesn't matter what you do with your windows...since your windows being closed doesn't actually seal your house, your house air pressure will vary with the outdoor air pressure.

Tornados on the ground near Bartow line. Same system that just moved through Wax Rd. area I think. Radar show tornadic signature over Euharlee.

It's kind of bright here, but starting to rain again.

News Chick....I'll bet your listening to the scanner and watching Ch2.  Everytime they say something, you say it too.

My mother-in-law is yelling at him that it is EUharlee and not Oharlee.:D

Keep your head down.

Well I bet you are right. Def. the scanner, and I think Glen Burns ? YES, he is saying Oharlee LOL.  I am at the computer so I can't see the TV screen.  But the satellite is still in/out.
