Pretty crazy stuff these past two days, I know a tornado cut through the north side earlier today, we had around 60mph winds at work... last night watched a giant wall cloud almost form above brookdale mall, there was crazy rotation going on.
Everyone else good?

Crazyness all happened *just* south and east of me. I actually had both dogs and anna packed up in the car and at Microcenter when it happened. All the neighbors said that the sirens went off literally as the tornado hit, there was very very little warning.
Looting at Penn & Broadway, about 20 blocks south of me, I drive through every day to/from work and I couldn't get within 5 blocks today cops and ambulances everywhere, and all side streets were just filled with debris.
Shawn posted some crazy pics in the shoutbox, I think I'll add them here.

God damn! Glad I got out of town without issue besides a slight delay. Pretty heavy thunderstorms here right now.

The storms are pretty crazy. I wouldn't wanna be anywhere near a tornado.
Only thing we have to worry about here in ND is flooding. Which is happening alot right now.

Thankfully not much going on west of the cities. Just on and off light showers.

Blaine was right in the path of the storm both days. The tornadoes and hail did make it a little tough to tell if the kabob's were fully cooked, but we still managed...
