I've been generally vague as to where I live specificly in Texas except for some people on the site. I live in Temple Texas. So you can begin looking up online news. Wednesday May 22nd there was a major weather storm. There were 4 tornadoes that went Through Temple, at least one was an EF2 and 2.5 miles wide. At 6:30 pm CDT my power went out. I was sitting in my walker in my hallway with all doors closed. I heard noises around my house I've never heard before the 40 years I've ilved here. Thankful I have metal roof. MY neighbors told me they ssaw a tornado go over our houses as well as right down the street in front of our homes. Thus far just a band joining sections was ripped off. Roofing contractors including my neighbors brother (and weren't "ambulance chasers" were on my street Thursday morning. A contractor helped me file a claim with my home owners insurance and I had a claim number by noon Thursday. My subdivision exits out West Aedams. Where I live did not have any significant damage, but east and West on Adams Ave from here was significant damage. LIke a bomb exploded. Downtown also receive significant damage. In fact, when Glenn & Melvin came up to retrieve the Lady Shredmore, where we ate lunch is one of the areas with significant damage.
I've lived through the worst Hurrixans to hit Houston in my life, but this was far more traumatic to me. My power was finally restored Saturday evening around 8:30 A friend came up from Georgetown on Thur. or Friday to retrieve all the meat in my chest freezer and take it to her house. I"ve spent all day cleaning up my fridge. My neighbor will help me with what's in my chest freezer when there's room in our trash cans next weejend, Am thankful my electricity came back on last night. It was 85F in my house. My neighbors have been looking out for me.
