Rye Miles #13621 Posted August 8 Share Posted August 8 Big storm came through NEOhio Tuesday. A couple tornadoes touched down. At one point over 500,000 people without power. It’s down to about 200K now. I was lucky, power never went out! https://www.msn.com/en-us/weather/topstories/nearly-275k-still-without-power-in-northeast-ohio-following-severe-storms-when-will-it-be-restored/ar-AA1onmKv 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Linn Keller, SASS 27332, BOLD 103 Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 Two tornadoes, one with a 17 mile on-the-ground track. Listened to reports on the ham radio during severe weather net and the subsequent nightly nets ... file that storm under "S" for "Scares me and I'm fearless!" 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 Posted August 9 Share Posted August 9 (edited) One of my better investments. It ran once for almost a week and a couple of times for two days. Now if I could just figure out a way to protect the roof and the shingles..... Edited August 9 by Cold Lake Kid, SASS # 51474 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rye Miles #13621 Posted August 10 Author Share Posted August 10 I’m within a half hour of any one of those 4 tornadoes and nothing here. My power never went off despite heavy rain and wind. I lucked out for sure 🙏🙏🙏 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linn Keller, SASS 27332, BOLD 103 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 Rye is correct, after the NWS survey, they DID up it to four tornadoes! I was listening to reports of traffic at a STANDSTILL on I-90 north of us -- not from debris or wrecks ... from sheer rainfall. The same report that corrected two tornadoes to four, added that the area received a storm total of SIX INCHES OF PRECIP in the worst hit areas! Our power was out for less than four minutes, we didn't get much more than two passing sprinkles in the south of the county ... I'm gonna go buy me a lottery ticket! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
