    Default Tornado was 2 miles away from us.

    Just to let everyone know, we are all right after Fridays tornados. We did have major damage to our roof and minor to our van. The Tornado that went down near us was only 2 miles south of us, we all thought it would come north, right for us, but thank God it didn't. We did get hail the size of golf ball to Baseball in are yard and it made all are yards look liked it snowed. Everyones Skylights, roofs, and AC units are all damaged.

    Just thank God I did die or nothing.

    Glad you're ok! I have a friend in Dallas and I guess they touched down about 4 miles from her place. I can't imagine how scared you all must have been.

    I am glad you are ok! I have never seen a real big tornado. I live by the Rocky Mountains and so they don't really form here too often, but I imagine they are terrifying. Sorry your house got some damage

    Glad you got through the tornado okay. Houses and cars can be fixed. My cousin lived through a tornado years ago in Kansas....she said it was the scariest thing she ever went through.

    I'm just glad you guys are ok. Things can be repaired, but people are irreplaceable.

    Even though a tornado would be an 'interesting' experience, I'll stick with watching them on TV.

    Tuesday we had another storm worse then before we had 2 funal clouds go right of our house. No hail, but lot of really bad winds. It was pretty bad some homes got some roofs taking off, and alot of people that did get there roofs off didn't even know it was coming. The tornado came out of now where for them. No one got hurt, thank goodness.
