NC gets worst of storms that ravaged swath of US ASKEWVILLE, N.C. - A tornado-spewing storm system that killed at least 45 people across half the country unleashed its worst fury on North Carolina, where homes broke apart, trees snapped and livestock were swept into the air. Residents in the capital city and rural hamlets alike on Sunday mourned the dead, marveled at their own survival and began to clean up devastated neighborhoods.
Observers reported more than 60 tornadoes across North Carolina on Saturday, but most of the state's 21 confirmed deaths occurred in two rural counties. A thunderstorm spawned a tornado that killed four people in southeastern Bladen County, then kept dropping tornadoes as it hopscotched more than 150 miles, eventually moving into Bertie County and killing 11 more.
I didn't end up doing anything last night other than Japanese homework. I'm still behind, but not quite as much as before?
I also took a shower (6 hours after my bath) and did some more reading. I do wish the RNG had selected a smaller, lighter book for me to start with.
Today is supposed to be 80F outside, so I'm wearing a sundress and hoping I wasn't lied to again. I also have a million little errands to run today, but I think I'll start with getting up the courage to go to OIT to try to ask them to help me with my laptop.
I despise asking for help.
