Default Tornadoes and stormy weather...

Hope everyone is OK in the chesapeake area with these tornadoes. I've watched the footage on the local news, and just hope the TBR community is well.

Blueh20pc (my Chris) has a brother and father in suffolk, and a mother in isle of wight, and they are ok, with no damage to homes or property. They got lucky, many other's didn't.

Anyways, hope everyone is fairing well!

If anyone needs anything, please let us know!

My parent's house was 1/4mile from buildings that were leveled and they said all that happened there was that a bunch of branches got blown all over the place and it scared the bejeezus out of my dog and my sister who were home alone while it was all going down.

My 100lb sister managed to get my 120lb dog into the bathtub so they could hide in the bathroom together.

I can't believe the damage. They played a clip taken by an airplane and holy crap what a mess.

This AM the Wavy10 TV helocopter followed the path of the storm with video pictures. Hard to believe the total destruction of homes and business. Totally unexpected and not predicted. Lots of injuries but amazing only one death reported....
Regards,

My dad took the day off and walked up to Driver and just started helping clear things up and my uncle did the same. That whole community is just devastated. My parent's said it's even worse out toward Obici. I feel terrible for everybody...
