was that a tornado in St. Leonard lastnight?

[Theodore]

I drove around last night where i could still get through and seen many trees down and debris everywhere. trees on houses, across streets and down on power lines. my yard looks like it does after a hurricane. has there been any word on what it was?

Took the senic way through the community to get home. Lucky we did not have any trees or damage. Seen trees down on wires and one between two homes with some roof damage to one of the houses.

Glad you didnt have any damage. it looks like we are not out of the woods yet with weather. supposed to have storms tonight as well.

I would believe it was. We had limbs down, leaves every where and it even blew the wooden crab sign with our name on it that daughter bought for us in OC years ago off the back deck wall and he broke into 2 pieces. It has never been blown of the wall before. Storm came out of nowhere. It was sort of funny. We are on the CC alert list. CC called to warn of the storm after it started, and then called to say alert was over way after it had stopped. I guess we were all caught by surprise.

I know there was one in Wayson's Corner, but I don't think anyone has confirmed in St. Leonard. A few friends of mine had limb/tree damage up there as well.

I thought something strange was going to happen last night. I was reading the forums, and people down in St. Mary's were talking about a storm hitting them south to north. At the same time i looked out the window and saw a storm heading north to south. I live in huntingtown and the storm was coming at us from dunkirk. I remember thinking i would not want to be where those 2 storms met up.

Doug was not on the air today.
Must have taken the day off, hanging out with Jim Vance.

VJ was doing the weather.
I always chuckle when they call her VJ.

Yea I noticed that too... lol I'm glad all we got was rain last night. I feel bad for the homes that were damaged the night before and the rain was getting in.

On the 11 o'clock news which ever station I was watching said something about a funnel cloud in the Morganza Turner Rd. area and another area somewhere in SoMd but I cant remember where. They didnt say whether it was reported to have touched down.
