So far so good here, SJC - we're due for another bout later this week. April & May are bad for storms in northeast AL.

I called my niece yesterday morning after watching news coverage of storm-touch-down near Raleigh, she's in Durham NC. A sheriff's deputy, and pregnant. She said damage and injuries next to her father in laws and one sister in laws neighborhood but everyone fine. They were just home from church and meeting friends for lunch in clear 70F (right that minute) weather. She sounded very calm for someone who wasn't raised in that part of the country :) We were in the car half way to Bainbridge Island and it was 42F. :(

Not that I'm complaining about the chill, not more than a little anyway.

It's hard for me to picture that kind of storm. Ours blow in off the ocean and take in all of us in a wide swath, not hit and miss from block to block.

Good to hear from both of you folks. The snow we had this morning is gone and the temp is right around 40. The winds have been really bad this spring. Michigan weather!
Shirley!
