Glad you and yours are well.

It's interesting to see the pictures of what happened. Thanks.

Wow. And here I was, complaining about our local 45mph wind gusts.

Thanks for the report/pics.

My girlfriend and I were driving from Detroit down to Missouri and kinda/sorta passed through a similar cell. Golf-ball hail (supposedly), 60mph gusts. We were getting close to town and got a call that a tornado hit town and that the highway into town was closed. Fortunately, the house I rent out is OK.

Probably should have pulled over, but the stretch of highway didn't really have any shelter or overhead cover, so just slowed way down, turned on all the lights, and muddled through. We DID get a bit of that green/mustard yellow sky and got a bit concerned of a tornado, but fortunately nothing popped over us.

Worst storm I've seen in this area personally, but would have been "fun" if I wasn't driving.

Glad the house is OK.
