      Back Home, Hurricane in Indiana?

      Wow, we went with out power for for 3 days. My nieghbors shed had a roof? It hit my truck at 75 MPH; truck was in the driveway. That is a bummer, I loved my powerstroke! So does my kids. At least we were all safe. It was like a hurricane without the rain?
      We roughed it at a hotel until the power was restored.

      My inlaws just had their power turned back on yesterday in Dayton. That storm must of had a good punch when it reached you guys.

      Good to hear your making it through.

      Did you get that shed on radar? Damn flying sheds should be outlawed

      Be careful and don't do any work that will get you hurting more than you all ready do.

      Take care and keep us posted.

      I got power back sunday evening. The only damage I had was my chimney cap. We were lucky. A tree in my neighbor's backyard lost a huge limb just missing his shed which he just put up the week before. I got cable, phone, & internet back yesterday. We're still without phones & internet at work. There were a lot of trees up-rooted and broken all around.

      We got our power back late Tuesday night. Thankfully we didn't have any damage to our house. We did lose a pretty good sized tree in our back yard.

      What fun!

      Lots of 60-75mph winds up here in Dayton area also. Plenty of large, 2'-3' diameter trees down, etc.

      Cincy had around 680,000 without power and Dayton area (DP&L) had something like 250,000 without power.

      Quite a difference from our HOT sunny weekend in Pigeon Forge!

      It was pretty windy here in Noblesville on Sunday. We never lost power. My dad lives in the south-eastern part of the state & they were without power for a couple days.

      I am going to have a friend with a rollback extract the shotty shed roof! I ain't lift'n snot! But is still in the driveway. I waiting for the interior to get soaked. Then it may really be totaled and I will buy it back and make a 6 door out of it.

      I got no damage but some around my house. We never lost power.

      My parents house is still without it though.

      Man, here in Chicago all we had was flooding, not the extreme winds you saw out there in Ohio

      Im from Campbellsburg! But I live in Arizona now.

      Im glad to hear noone was hurt. My parents had quite a few large limbs fall from trees and my Dad's barn was damaged. He just had some really big trees cut down a few months ago which might have fallen on the house if they were still there! Yikes! Crazy weather!

      We just got our power back yesterday evening and there are about 50,000 still in the dark here. We have three 70' hickory trees that might not make it, but I'm glad we don't live in Galveston and that the weather was pretty nice. But for the cold showers, it was just an annoyance.
