Sunday (Mother Nature's day apparently) morning two tornadoes touched down in our city, causing catastrophe. Damage is everywhere. Our neighborhood
got spared, and everyone I know is safe. :)

However the buildings are not. Our skating rink is completely torn apart,
my dad teaches at a college, and all the college's trees, roofs, are torn apart. Trees are on top of buildings, signs are everywhere. My school had some damage, but the the successor high school just up the rode was wrecked and
torn apart. Trailers were in trees. The gym collapsed and flooded, and trees
smashed the cafeteria. A lot of houses are gone, along with thousands
of trees. Power has been out since 5:30 AM yesterday, and they didn't
expect it to come back on until Tuesday since nearly every powerline was
snapped and thrown everywhere. Luckily they got the power back on early.

We were a disaster area and state of emergency, even a water tower's
lid was taken off! Everything's destroyed, it's like really amazing. @_@

I might post a few pictures.

So, while we were in mayhem the past two days, what did I miss?
 
Wow, that's awful. But luckily you are all safe and you're able to get back on VMK
 
Wow glad you're ok!! How scary!!
 

oh i hope everything goes back to normal and i'm glad your ok :)uh some test track stuff came out btw
 
THANK GOODNESS!

Nothing much, except Lily giving me an unreleased Alice Present #4 :)
 
Thanks guys. That's awesome goofy, did you get to keep it?

Yes it was very scary, my parents woke me up and we huddled in the safest
place we have in the house, a bathroom downstairs LOL.

I was relieved when the sirens stopped and I was waiting for the power to
turn on.. and when it didn't we went for a ride to get breakfast since we ran
out of stuff we didn't need electricity for.. Turns out it was a lot worse
than it looked. It was really horrible.

One of my neighbors goes to the high school that got ripped apart. She's
really happy because school's obviously out for the year for her.

At least I get today out of school..
 
Nope, she came in and took it away

Aww, that stinks.

Here is my skating rink now (I didn't take it, it's from a news site):

Check out the Breakfast Trades page

Lets not hijack Shark's thread, now

Lol it's fine. I think I should have posted this in the community board, I've
talked about the storm more than what I have missed LOL. But she was kind
of on topic because she might have missed that too. :)

No school for me tomorrow either, still over 20 schools without power.
 
oh hmm i wish my scholl had closed sometime this year bc i leave on june 13th no matter wat bc i graduate that day
 
Hey! I am so sorry about that happening! Luckily, I live in a place where no tornadoes or hurricanes ever happen, except for when I see Hurry ;)

If you need any items that came out then, I can gladly gift them to you!
 
The best thing is that you are safe and you're family. The only thing you missed was more sadness :(

We get hurricanes and tornadoes, but we don't get earthquakes or blizzards.
We're not even supposed to get bad tornadoes, this is the worse our city
has had in over 50 years.

And your very generous, but no thanks I got the things I needed on Saturday
before our power went poof. :D

Yep and I'm very grateful that the tornado missed our house by less
than a mile and that me and my family are okay. :)
