[Steppes] Everyone OK??

[Wilkerson, Glen D]

I've been listening to the news all morning and haven't heard anything
about Sanger yet, but they would have been in the line of the bad storms
that hit Breckenridge, Bridgeport, and Decatur.

Saqra here, in Carrollton, which seems to have suffered fairly
significant damage widespread over much of the area. Trees are down, at
the intersection at Frankford and Midway the traffic lights were
literally twisted down to crash on the road. Traffic lights out north of
Trinity Mills everywhere. The emergency siren woke me as I heard it
through the occasional pauses in the screaming winds. Luckily, I have no
real trees in my yard and a cursory check this morning showed no damage
to my house, but I inherited branches from all over the neighborhood.
Driving to work, power lines were down in a number of places, including
one where the pole had twisted about 90 degrees before coming down
across some cars. Fences are down everywhere, back yard furniture
litters the streets, and the creek not far from my house actually come
over the road at some point from the debris left behind. The weather
people are saying straight line winds of about 70 miles an hour, but I
can't see how a st
 raight line wind could twist a power pole like a Twizzler!

Hopefully, this didn't affect the site for Glaslyn Defender. Anyone from
up there on the list who can make sure that there wasn't damage there?

Saqra

We had some wicked weather this morning.  Just checking to see if
everyone's
OK: Richardson, Desoto, Plano, and wherever else the tornadoes were.  I
hope
all are safe.
