Severe Thunderstorms and Tornados in Atlanta!

Post by Stitchindude »

Last night Atlanta was hit by a tornado! Many buildings with windows blown out, Damage to the CNN center, and the Georgia Dome where the NCAA tournament was taking place. There is storm debris all over the streets downtown. Miss Daisy and I are fine, we are battening down the hatches as round two is heading our of Alabama!

Oh no Dude, have you had any damage? Storms like that are scary, they do so much damage generally. Please stay safe and keep in touch as you can to let us know you are ok wont you.

Thinking of you!

You and Miss Daisy need to head on down to the storm cellars with some warm blankets a flashlight and a load of stitching and wait the storm out in warm cozy comfort. Oh yeah some food and water. But the stitching is the most important. :o


Be safe.

The Dude & Miss Daisy have persevered, and all has since blown over! No damage here where we live, but Atlanta didn't fair so well! Thanks to everyone's prayers and concerns we are doing fine!
