0% chance of rain, so naturally it's raining out. Got to cover my wood.........

Well, apparently the remnants of the storm gave cause for the first ever tornado warning in my area.....

According to data compiled by WataugaOnline.com pertaining to tornadoes in the High Country, Sunday’s Tornado Warning by the National Weather Service (NWS) was the first ever warning for Watauga County. For a more detailed look at the tornado data visit this link. Neighboring Caldwell and Wilkes counties had confirmed reports of tornadoes.

I thought the rain sounded like it was hitting the house from the side, not falling straight down, but thought it was just because the wind was blowing harder than usual. Several areas were flooded and some roads were closed. My basement had a little water come in, but nothing major as of yet. I'll try to post some photos.

Stay safe. I was at Publix at ten o'clock last night because tornado sirens were caterwauling.

We're okay.....just a lot of rain. Lenoir, about 30 minutes away did have an actual tornado.

How did y'all fare?
We had only one tornado scare and not nearly as much rain as first predicted. I'm thankful for that because our street turns into a river at the mere mention of a storm, haha. Also, the light was a weird yellow and pink this evening, watching the storm move northeast. Barred owls were hooting...very odd before night time.

Glad it wasn't as bad as expected. I'll bet the light and hearing the owls was weird. It's still raining here. Hoping it's about over.

Im glad that's almost over and wasn't as bad, we didn't get anything from that one but the sky did have that stirring breezy look once, but it never did anything here. Hope its over soon! :smile2:
