@skipt07 Hi Skip, there were 26 tornadoes reported in Iowa on Tuesday. The sirens went off here but thank goodness one didn't hit our area. They say that the one that completely destroyed part of Greenfield was on the ground for 1 minute, but there was another tornado on the ground for 35 minutes. Thanks for thinking of me.
@lynnz - We experienced a rash of tornadoes on May 31, 1985, that ravaged northeastern Ohio, northwestern Pennsylvania, New York, and Canada. In 8 days will be the 39th anniversary of that.
My heart goes out to those poor people in Greenfield. Ironically, there is a small village two miles north of us named Greenfield that was hit.
Here is a link to that event. The house shown in the photo was in Wheatland, PA which is a half mile from where I worked. The garage where I worked was totally destroyed.
I worked for the phone company so I got to meet and hear stories from some of the surviviors.
These are so pretty.
