We drove up to Dwight this morning and it appears their lumber yard is heavily damaged along with lots of broken trees and we could see metal from buildings (or mobile homes maybe) scattered all over town. There are police officers with road blocks set up on the south side of town so you can't drive through the damaged areas. Power companies are in Dwight and Odell...the Casey's in Dwight is using a generator for power.
We also had tornadoes west and south of us last night but the good Lord allowed the storms to go around us...all we got was lots of lightening, a little wind but not much and some rain.
And today...it's beautiful outside... |
I saw the pictures of what looked like a lumberyard too. Boy I wish we would hear from Lou. She might be on call she does work in the hospital in Kankakee.
