Well actually about a mile away, or at least that's what it sounds like. I'm still at work, getting ready to head home and see if I still have a house and kids (they're at daycare, very close to the path). If you don't hear from me this evening, I either have no house or no power.<br><br>
First tornado I've ever heard of in my 36 years in the Northwest.

Whew. No damage that I can see, though all the clocks are blinking. News helicopters are flying overhead, there's some pretty heavy damage about half a mile from us.

 

[Boyerdavea]

Glad all is OK.

 

[runninirish]

Glad all is well...we had one hit two days ago just north of us...just dropped out of the sky with no warning...scary stuff.

 

[Brew_Dad]

Glad to hear you're ok. From the TV coverage, it looks like it didn't miss you guys by much.

 

[Thor]

Good thing your knee sucks, otherwise you might've been out there, riding home with a sweet tune in your head, when all of a sudden you got swept away, never to be heard of again. Phew. We might miss you if that happened.

 

[MBannon]

Who knows, maybe it would have dropped me gently on <i>your</i> bike route.

 

[MBannon]

It was very close.

 

[CCRaces]

Glad to hear all is well. We had one hit about 15 miles West of me Monday night when it was about 60 degrees. Did some damage, but nothing horrendous. Weird winter weather. Now it's 34 degrees with an icy rain.

jeez, aren't you our positive light?<br><br><br>

[Yo Mikey]

Glad to hear all is okay, stuff makes you think what's important....

 

[Econo]

[mykemp1971]

Glad to hear your family and home are safe!

 

[TriAndStopMe]

Whew! Glad to hear everyone is safe. Talk of tornadoes always reminds me of home.

Matt, very glad you are all okay and no damage to your house. Close call.

 

[Tri-Tammy]

Matt- Just saw this on the news this morning and thought of you. Glad you and your family are okay.

 

[mmoonptdeux]

Glad to hear you're okay, Matt - I saw some footage and thought wow, that's some crazy carp.<br><br>
I'm sort of a weather geek myself - unusual weather in places always gets my attention. I heard on the radio this morning that it snowed in Baghdad of all places.
