Tornadoes

[LVMarauder]

Fox tells me there was a nasty tornado in florida early this morning. And more on the way for Central FL. Hope everything is A ok. My geography of FL is kinda lacking so I dont know where Orange Park is.

Thanx.
The mess is over me in Vero Beach right now. Almost can't hear myself think in this steel roofed building with the heavy rain coming down.

The MM needed a wash anyways.
This weather makes business slow. Good thing I have MM.net!

Isn't DR in Orange Park?

The storm went all across central Florida very early this morning.

Most of the damage was north of the Orlando area. So far, at least 14 deaths, and lots of destruction. I haven't even had a chance to see any of the video, but I've heard people talking about what a mess it is.

I'm not sure how many members are from that area, but if there are any, I hope they got through it safely.

I'm sure some other Florida members can provide more info as I've been tied up with work stuff all day.

Isn't DR in Orange Park? That is Correct. I hope they are ok.

Here, in Vero beach on the east coast of FL, it was intense, but short. 60 mph winds and heavy rain.

<Note to Self> Take Florida off the retirement location list. ;)

It's been a pretty rough several years down there for the SSM gang between hurricanes and the tornadoes. Seems ya'll should be due for a break.

That is why we all have boosted "get out of town quick" Marauders. Live fast who knows about tomorrow. Dennis

My folks live in The Villages, stayed there during MV IV. Luckily they didn't get any damage. I feel bad for those who lost their lives.

We've been hearing all of the gut wrenching stories on our local stations, and it's all so sad.

Just another reason to feel even more vulnerable here in the beautiful Sunshine State.

I've been trying to reach a friend and I haven't had any luck.
I really hope they are alright.

We got a lot of rain and some wind we were very lucky, the storms came through here then strengthened as they went south.
