Just saw Lindale got hit by a twister...
We need a Turnip and Beaver report...
Are you folks safe?
-
Ken reports that he is fine and will report in in AM when he can see better. Beaver was/is without power worried about flooding, but OK No one injured.

Thanks for thinking about us. Two twisters hit the Lindale area damaging over 20 homes. Beaver said the power came on later last night for her. I checked my rain gauge at 8 am and it was plum full with 5". One man said he had so much rain it filled up two rain gauges. Free rain was listed on Craig's list. "Step outside and get all you want."
Sure I'm mighty thankful that I have no damage her at the Oleo ranch, but to see houses with the roof torn off and then get 5+" of rain in your house makes me be even more thankful.
Two months ago all of east Texas was under a burn ban. Boat ramps were closed as it was up to 300 feet from the ramp to water. At the end of Nov we'd set the all time yearly record for rain. Add some more to really set a record!
I'll pick up Beaver later and we'll go out to the Legion. Will report back later.

PS. The bikes are in the shed, barn and carport so none of the dirt gets washed off. Cigars are dry :laugh:

Good to hear !

The GRIT Rally site at the American Legion was not hit by the tornadoes. Tex and I were very fortunate, lots of damage all around us, but didn't directly hit us! Neither of us were at home when it hit around 4:00ish. The bad rain storm causing all the flooding didn't happen until later.
Neighborhood near me - streets were blocked some houses ok, some torn up

Tex--You ain't right! Glad to hear you and Beaver are OK and there wasn't any deaths associated with the storms.
