he was having some health issues but seemed to be slowly overcoming those. he lives on the other side of the interstate from me, I need to drop in an see how he's doing
As for the storms, they got pretty nasty. but looks like the worst with south of us and north of us. Town got hit hard, the main power substation is on fire and several dozen transformers exploded, they're evacuating that part of town as they can't seem to get it under control. Per the scanner and social media. we're on a different grid luckily here. I65 is closed just south of town due to tons of debris in the roadway and over turned cars and semis. Here at home, no noticeable damage yet, but the sun isnt up yet and the new porch swing is MIA but structure wise, I think we're fine. I tried heading to the farm but the roads were all blocked with trees, the farm is 7 miles south of me and was on the northern edge of the worst part and phones arent going thru, there's a cell tower right there just west of our property about 3/4 that also has the county skywarn repeater on it, both are offline.
