Video of storm damage this afternoon in Robertsville, Missouri, about 1 1/2 miles from my house. The storm followed Interstate 44 up from S.W. Missouri, killing two in Dent County and one in Phelps, and causing extensive damage in Fenton, Sunset Hills and from what I hear on into the City of St. Louis.
Anytime we get temperatures into the upper 60's this time of year you just have to figure something is going to blow up somewhere. My wife and I were driving on Interstate 44 as the storm came through, heading out to St. Clair. The wind and rain were so strong that traffic actually came to a stop, right in the middle of the highway. We basically could no longer see the taillights on the vehicle in front of us even though we were only thirty or so feet apart.

Thank God you are safe. Please take care.
ReplyDeleteWe had some fierce tornado activity this year in my neck of the woods too. Six months ago, Elmwood, Il was slapped silly by a twister and yesterday we had tornado activity in Tazewell Co.,Il. Yep, it's been a real bad year for the dang things in the mid-west.
