We are now starting to get those nasty storms.
Wind is terrible and the thunder and lightning has started,

Please check in.

scrapchick · 04-09-2008, 07:59 PM

Nothing up here yet, but its headed this way. I'm sure I'll sleep right through it...

rubysrider · 04-09-2008, 08:18 PM

We have thunder, lightning, and rain going on right now. Looks like eastern Oklahoma is getting hit hard right now.
Could be a really long night. Everybody please be careful.

snickers · 04-09-2008, 08:24 PM

I have NOAA pulled up and it looks like a super cell with rotation and a hole in the middle.
Looks like a hurricane, but on land. Heading to the AR. line from OK.
I would have to bet thats a tornado.

Mule360 · 04-09-2008, 09:32 PM

Nothing for us yet, but I did see on the news that there's a tornado warning for Franklin county. Looks like that storm is headed toward Mountainburg, Ozark, and Whittaker. Everyone keep an eye out!

My gosh, I'm tired of tornado season.

snickers · 04-09-2008, 11:01 PM

I am in Franklin county.

It got real bad here, hail and high winds.
I was told last week one went just below us, but wasnt on the ground long.

cascy · 04-10-2008, 12:40 AM

I'm still here... For now anyway

Saw on the news it said the storms are heading down the river or I40... Just great, we are right by the river!

Well, I'm bout to go to sleep and will be out for the night, ya'll let me know how it goes in the morning

hillbilly898 · 04-10-2008, 08:42 AM

We got around 5 inchs of rain here nothing else real bad. But it did get the rivers up enough my kids didn't have school today.

enelson · 04-10-2008, 04:03 PM

We don't have it nearly as bad as ya'll, but we are completely flooded out by my house. My Mom called and let me know the roads are completely flooded out there, and that means I more than likely will not be able to get across the low water bridge in our driveway. It was already letting water in my doors this morning when I went through it. I'm not sure what it will do later, but I hope it does nothing! Best of luck to all of you!

lopintoo · 04-10-2008, 08:53 PM

We just got 3-4 inches of rain and a little thunder. Thankgoodness it wasn't worse. The called school out early today because of the flooding. Then the sun came out about 5 pm and it was beautiful.

scrapchick · 04-10-2008, 09:28 PM

Rained hard enough to probably cancel the show at Grubville on Saturday.
Lopintoo, do you go to the Grubville shows? If they cancel Saturday and make the rain date the following Saturday, we will be at Brushy Creek.

Ike · 04-10-2008, 09:28 PM

Looks like we missed the bad storms or at least so far. We did get a lot of rain but that was about it.

WalkNJake · 04-10-2008, 09:32 PM

Had rain here in Brussels until about 1 PM, then broken clouds, rain, sunshine all evening. Was able to go check on the cutting horse over at the trainer, then bring Dommy up for a grooming. Not bad here so far.

Those NOAA radios are a lifesaver...literally.

PlayNDomino · 04-10-2008, 10:06 PM

We now have a MUD farm. LOL....we are ok though. I know other got hit pretty hard, so we are blessed not to have got the rough stuff.

WalkNJake · 04-11-2008, 10:10 PM

Windstorms tonight. Nothing too bad, but 2 trees down that I'll have to clean up tomorrow morning.

scrapchick · 04-11-2008, 11:01 PM

We're supposed to get snow tomorrow.

cascy · 04-11-2008, 11:09 PM

I heard that too scrappy... I came to Mo at the wrong time! Time to head back to arky-saw

Missouri weather is crazy! We had the snow this morning. When I told my kids it was snowing they didnt believe me. My son was out playing without his shirt on the other day when it was near 75. Crazy I just hope this is the last hit of cold. This wind is crazy. We were going to do the horses manicures yesterday

and I said forget it. I knew how it would be with the crazy wind and everything banging around.

scrapchick · 04-12-2008, 09:33 AM

First local fun show of the year was supposed to be today but too much mud. What a drag.

ilovepaints1 · 04-12-2008, 10:06 AM

Which fun show? Did you see my post on the one coming up in Elsberry? I am going to try to get out alot more and do stuff with the horses this spring and summer. My mom was having knee problems and finally had surgery so she wasnt able to watch the kids for me last year so I missed out on alot of camping and fun shows. Although I still have wooly mammoth coats on my horses and the thought of trying to get them anywhere near white is scary right now.
