If it hits my neighborhood, there will be pictures of Dale Sr. and Jesus scattered all about, empty liquor bottles from the old hag across the street, dead chickens (DON'T ask, not mine), and my panties. Everyone will wonder if they fit. Yes, they do, mutherfuckers. Without leaving angry red marks.

When you are under a tornado warning, every truck sounds like a train and you really wish the neighbors would bring their dogs in the house. I don't want to hear your dog barking and I don't want to see your dog come crashing through my bay windows.

Keep your eye to the sky & if you hear the sirens, haul ass downstairs. Stay away from windows & you should have a fully charged phone.

Rotation in Canton, GA now. That's a little north of me. I think we're good now.

I saw all the damage from the last tornadoes yesterday when I was driving. There were acres of snapped trees that still haven't been removed (the last tornado crossed the interstate). Glad I went up that way yesterday, wouldn't want to be driving in this super heavy rain.

We have been in a drought here. When the root systems dry out and then get huge amounts of rain in short periods of time, trees come down. Most of the damage now is downed trees.

well this sucks. i am again waiting to hear from my son with the Texas horse ranch. the drought has been a nightmare, i hoped TS Lee would give them rain.




FOX
BASTROP, Texas – A wildfire burning southeast of Austin, Texas, destroyed about 300 homes, forced the evacuation of many others and was advancing unchecked on Monday through parched ranchland along a 16-mile front, authorities said.

The fire had blackened more than 17,500 acres since it started on Sunday and was the largest of the dozens burning in the drought-stricken state. It was headed away from the state capital, some 30 miles to the northwest, and consuming the water-starved woods and brush with such ferocity that it was deemed unsafe to fight from the ground, Texas Forest Service spokeswoman Jan Amen said.

"It's a monster and it's zero percent contained," Amen said.

Instead, the state deployed its firefighting air fleet, including National Guard helicopters and four heavy tanker planes. It also summoned a tanker from South Dakota.

Emergency shelters were set up for those forced to evacuate their homes. About 30 people spent the night at a Bastrop church, waiting to learn if they had lost everything.

I thought about you when I saw that story. I wish they would have had some of this rain, too.

Do they let the fires burn in Texas? In California they would let some of the wildfires burn to clear underbrush and allow for secondary succession.

^^ Leave it to you, Cracker, to think about your panties being scattered throughout GA.
(hope the tornado doesn't steal your panties)

We are getting A lot of rain here in TN from Tropical Storm Lee. We needed it though.

last week 3000 pair of women's panties were scattered across an Ohio highway. it's an Ohio mystery! you know how Ohio is.

now i think Cracker's bloomers were hijacked to Ohio!



JACKSON, Miss. – The slow-moving remnants of Tropical Storm Lee dumped a torrent of rain across the South on Monday and whipped up twisters that damaged dozens of Georgia homes as the storm system pushed farther inland. One death was reported, and at least one person was injured.

In Mississippi, a man was swept away by floodwaters after trying to cross a swollen creek, the first death caused by flooding or winds from Lee. The system was sweeping through Alabama and pushing into Georgia, where the suspected tornadoes sent trees falling into homes and injured at least one person.

wow. 650+ dead.

many more photos at link below.





More than 650 people have been killed - most of them children - and hundreds more are still missing after a typhoon hit the southern Philippines, triggering flash floods and landslides.

Typhoon Washi, with winds gusting up to 56mph, hit the island of Mindanao late on Friday, bringing heavy rain that also grounded some domestic flights and left wide areas without power.

The hardest-hit areas were the cities of Iligan and Cagayan de Oro. Houses were swept into the sea while people were sleeping inside.
