I'll continue to keep everyone in my prayers there.
Hope all the storms and warnings stop soon.

I wouldn't be surprised if that Zombie Proof House was V's all along! He'll be fine - he always is :)

I'd prefer taking on the zombies instead of the weather at least you can shoot them in the head apparently...

Thanks for the good wishes, friends. :)
The tornado passed from about 5-6 miles (out of town) from where I live, at around 2 PM yesterday. Gusty winds hit us which shook the foundations of the houses in our colony, and both cars got dragged and hit the wall in front and the gate behind with some force. Needless to say, they need some repairing and denting work. Some of the potted plants in our garden went for a ride and were dropped some distance away from our house. Debris and garbage stuff filled the driveway and were cleaned out only this morning. The house is filled with dust and needs some serious vacuuming for the next couple of days. Other than that everything else is fine. Power was restored late last night and satellite feed started coming in about 30 minutes ago. Skies are a bit cloudy right now but I think the worst is behind us. My cell ran out of battery juice yesterday morning so I couldn't text Rayne about the latest. Thanks to her for posting my texts till then.

Yay V is back!
Good to see you made it through relatively unscathed. I have some tornado stories I could tell too!

Yes I feel we were lucky. The villages through which the tornado passed wouldn't be as lucky I guess. I have yet to check today's papers.
This was our first time experiencing a storm with such force, although I am sure fiercer storms exist (who can forget New Orleans!). We have experienced heavy flooding rain before, which made us ditch our house for 24 hours till the waters receded about 13 years ago, but this was our very first encounter with a storm this fierce.
