It's quiet now, but earlier...well, here in the city we got off pretty easy, some hail, some power out, the east side got a lot of water. Out at my parents', the neighbor lost their garage and the roof off their horse shed, and my dad had shingles torn off the roof and the old satellite TV, which was sunk into the ground in concrete, is now pulled up and laying on its side on the ground. The roof of the garage was found laying on the ground between Dad's and the neighbor's to the north. The same storm went into the town of Eagle as a confirmed tornado and tore up roofs and grain bins there. I'm willing to bet that it was already a tornado when it went over my parents' house. I think that's the 3rd time now that a tornado has gone over or caused damage to their house. At least this time wasn't anywhere near as bad as the last, and nobody was hurt.
Watching the news now--quite a bit of damage in several cities. Hope no one was hurt.
