Holy Wind Gust
Right now sounds like my home is in middle of a Wind tunnel.
There something making a scratching sound on my bedroom wall and it unnerving but there is no tree on that side so it must be the holly bushes branches . Does anyone have a wind gust radar and is there a chance for micro bursts or such.

I will see what I can find. Our Emergency radio went off about 10 mins ago - but was for Spartanburg storm moving up this way.
Hang in there. Scary stuff.

You say more headed this way? It needs to stop by bed time but I could always leave the pc on with something like live tv on. I hope no one needs to venture out there could be flying cows.
Im only picking about that site . It is a favorite of mine with the hourly checks. |
