[AT] Now NC twisters: was Mina problem

[Herbert Metz]

Phil; appreciate your thinking of us.  Twice this past couple months we
have had serious hail/tornado  warnings; approx a month ago we had some
rain, then half inch dia spongy hail that covered approx 40& of the ground,
and only rain this past time.  Both times we squeezed everything into the
garage or shed.  Both times there have been some hail damage and last time
a tornado was sighted southwest of us approx fifteen miles, but not
knowledgeable about the outcome.  So, we have been very fortunate.
Regards, Herb

that's La-JOON to me, I don't care what anybody says!) had some severe
damage at a base housing facility.  Also some severe damage around
Jacksonville.  Didn't even rain here enough to wet the ground.  I was
however coming back from the Va. Cubfest in Randolph VA and came into
Raleigh about the time it got hit.  I think I missed being in a tornado's
path by about 5 miles.  Hardest rain I have ever seen in my life.  Coming
on down I-40 I saw another area where a tornado had just been through. 
Lots of broken trees and a tractor trailer on its side.

So things were fine here except just a few trees were down and we got 1.4"
rain in about 15 minutes.
