Blown Away: Tornadoes in Atlanta

Not being from a weather-disaster prone area, this has had me kind of on edge all day long watching the weather men say things like “I don’t think I’ve ever seen two storms merge together like this ever before, especially around a metropolitan area,” and “This is currently a worst-case scenario.”

The real point of this post is to let everyone know that everything is OK in my neck of the woods. Other than a few branches down and the power going in and out a bit, I didn’t really experience much tornado weather, though there were major tornado touchdowns 10 miles north and 10 miles south of me. Somehow I got lucky and actually had a rather sunny day.
