Storms tore through the middle of the country, recycling the communal tornado every so often and given certain friends bonus tornadoes. My town got one, but we haven't been able to get out and see what kind of damage it's wrought. We got stuck in high water and parents' car is damaged potentially beyond rrepair. But the house is intact and we have power, so I'll call that a win.

We’ve had an unseasonably high amount of tornadoes here in the upper Midwest where I reside. Like, we’ve had 5 close to my house since the beginning of march.

Oof! We had another smaller tornado rip through part of our town (not so near my house though) and few days ago, but yeah. Good thing the whole world is working together to stop climate change, right? anakin-padme-4

Oof! As a midwesterner myself, I feel you. I got lucky and a tornado didnt hit my town a few days ago, but the weather station was very sure it would. I'm glad you and your family are safe.
