Be weather aware

Mrs. Basket Case, Harley and Maggie (the cats), and I all made it through fine. Bad stuff was about a mile from us.
Had a safe place prepped, and hunkered for a few minutes with bicycle helmets and some stuff we can’t replace in a closet with at least three walls between us and the outside. Streamed Fox6 on our phones through their weather app, and just having the information at hand was an incredible relief.
It appears that the tornado touched down somewhere around Tuscaloosa’s most upscale residential area, fronting Lake Tuscaloosa. At least, that’s where the debris signature was reported on the TV.
No injuries have been reported, but a lot of coaches live there, and I’m hoping all of them, their families, and their homes are in good shape.

we were woken up by weather alerts around 2:30 this morning. debris field on radar passed about 1 mile south of us, between us and the airport. it started dissipating as it passed east point. thankfully, so far, it looks like the only damage in the surrounding area is some trees and such down.
yeah, I saw that 5-6 folks were killed up there, sad. at the same time as we were under the warning, there was a big debris field about 40 miles south of us in thomaston, but haven't heard more about that one.
Huntsville just got the rain. The damage passed just to the south. I checked my rain gauge this morning and it was at 6.625", the most I've ever seen in it...
apparently this is what set off our alerts around 2:30 this morning.
The EF2 tornado in Boaz missed my house by less than a mile to the east!
