Tornado Warnings Last Night

United States
December 29, 2024 9:51am CST
Last night, my phone was going crazy with tornado warnings. Three times it went off, and by that time we lost power all night long. We have so many trees around our house, I was really afraid one would fall on our house. We got up, and after about an hour lights came back on. Last night, was the longest night. Hope you all are ok. See you later.

I'm glad you are safe and sound. We had gale force winds; but everything is OK. Have a good week.

Glad it didn't happen. I had a tree fall in my house several years ago due to a tornado and another that knocked the heat pump off it's pad. It was as scary as Hell. I was afraid the windows would blow out

@popciclecold Yeah, I had heard of it happening, so I was nervous about it.That would have really freaked me out. My dog was lying on the bed too. He wouldnt join me in the closet..He could have been killed.

You are lucky that your electricity came back on after an hour! Ours went out right before 8 pm last night and did not come back on until after 1 pm today!

What a night - I hope you and those around you were ok after all that. Those trees - we only have one big one and I have that fear of toppling in just heavy winds. Stay safe out there!

I’m so glad you are okay. I know how frightening those middle of the night tornado warnings are. Maybe you can get a nap today.

It was a wild ride in the south last night. I was so sad to hear that there were at least two fatalities. One thing I’m extremely thankful for is the advances we have in radar and meteorology where they can see these things coming sometimes days in advance.

I thought of you. Even though we aren’t far apart your area seems to always get it worse. Our lights never went out. They did flicker a lot. It sounded terrible. There are a good many small branches down. Glad you and your son are okay.
