Roll Call...Hoping all our members are okay after all these storms!

We got what might have been the worst storm in the 40 years that I've lived here last night. Thank God it didn't last long. Tore up some trees and blew shit around all over the place but no real damage to homes in the neighborhood. You folks down South please check in and let us know you're alright. Thanks all.

Did not get much of anything here Tick.

It rolled through sporto's area I hope hes ok! Im just north of him and a couple trees down and ripped some shingles and roofs off over by flanny but thats about it

Still in the dark and just started getting a cell signal and checking the internet. All is well on the home front. Had to drive about 100 miles yesterday morning for gas for my generator. It was some crazy stuff hope noceris is alright anyone heard from him?

Noceris is OK.

I hope all of our guys are alright.

Few dents in my truck from the hail, but good otherwise. Lots of damage just north and south of here. All good with Bush and Jerry?

im good. not heard from jerry but he should be fine. hit north of us. all i can say is it looks like a war zone in Glade Springs VA at least 8 dead.

still working, 16 hour days since monday. no rest for the wicked

Spent the day in Knoxville, which got hit alot harder than i thought!! Me and corey rolled around and checked it out. The big dealership down there was awfulllly empty!!!!! The few we saw looked like a pissed off gf went to town with a golf club. His momma showed me pics of egg + sized hail that pelted them.

Still kickin. No power here either. Since we are emergency responders we were able to get fuel without the lines, thank goodness.

Tory, Dave, glad yall are ok!!!!! If yall need anything just holla up above the state line!!!

ok here hit in ringgold just about 15 miles north of me real hard they are reporting it was an f4 size tornado there. i worked there friday night helping secure the area it is a huge mess.

Well, Our house got hit in the tornado at 12:45 am on the 28th but we only lost shingles and a 4x8 sheet of roof decking (found in the front yard ~ 250 feet away) which resulted in the master bedroom ceiling falling in after 1.69 inches of rain. Almost every room in the house has water damage. It is really something sitting in the living room watching water stream down the walls at 3 am knowing that you don't have enough tarps to do any good. I told the wife that it'll be fixed no problem. The Southern wall was moved 4-6 inches the East wall was buckled, 51/2 days without power, 8 days without cable, and 18 days without internet, and we were blessed we are not hurt and we still have a house. My neighbors weren't so blessed there were three that lost thier homes and about a mile from me two died. A cattle farmer down the road lost 42 cattle and has no clue where they are. Never saw anything like it came and gone in a matter of 4-6 seconds. Down from my place it looks like a bush hog came through set at about 15 feet high and 1/4 to 1/2 mile wide that wacked everything in its path. We lost about 60 trees snapped like a twigg. My old Massey 35 earned its fuel and so did the Cat. It wasn't feeding hogs but hauling and being used like a yard truck. I'd still be working if it wasn't for some very nice folks that helped us and these machines. We have started repairs to the house that were estimated to be about $48K. Sould be finished with the repairs in another 3-4 weeks. We were Blessed. I need to ride!!!!!!!

Glad to hear you are all ok.

Wow Goose....bummer on the destruction....super glad you and yours are all ok!!!

Sorry about the damage Goose. Very glad it was not worse. Hope to see you on the trail this year.

Thanks guys. We are doing fine we just have to make our way through the red tape and construction. Nothing is easy these days.

Sorry about your damage. Glad to hear a friend and his family are ok, but pray for those who were not so lucky. Ride with us soon.
