Default Weekend storms

Epic storms all over the southeast this weekend.
Members please check in.

15 confirmed dead in Georgia.
In Bulloch county (30 miles from Savannah) we got over 5 1/2" of rain Sunday, almost 3" Saturday, no damage to speak of.
31 tornado touch downs recorded in Georgia.
Going to check on the house and V in Savannah today.

Central Florida was getting pummeled yesterday afternoon.

Hit us about noon to 1:30 Sunday afternoon.lots of wind and fast moving thunder storms. Trees down and power outages.

No tornados locally, most of them inland, north of I-10. Local Air Force base clocked 70mph straight line winds on the runway.

Looks like its heading up the eastern seaboard.

Rain (around 4"), lightning and thunder and wind. The ground was saturated by Sunday morning and it rained most of Sunday before the winds picked up. I was watching the trees, but nothing bad, just a few limbs down. Maybe Matthew thinned out the weak ones.

Had quite a bit of wind, not much rain, but that was about it. The tornados fell apart about 10 miles before they made it to me.

Cool

Lotta rain in NJ right now... sustained winds in the 15-35 mph class. Most worries around here are flooding and tree limbs down. Heard a tree go down in the woods behind my house this evening, but too dark to find it. Both boats are safe and that's all I really care about back there.

Silence, in the face of evil, is itself evil. Not to speak is to speak, not to act is to act. God will not hold us guiltless.
