Just in case anyone sees the news and wonders, we are OK here and, more importantly, the seeds are OK.
Con: This one, at one point, bounced down less than a mile from my house.
Pro: I got to use my storm shelter for the first time.

We had one rip through about a mile and a half from us last January. Not an event I wish to repeat but still likely as I live in Georgia. Glad you came through safely.

My turn today. I just had a confirmed tornado touch down 10 miles (16 kilometers) west of my house. Fortunately, it wasn't tracking in my direction. No reports yet of any injuries or damage.

Hopefully there are none. It updated here today that there were multiple tornadoes from Kentucky to Nashville, but only six deaths reported. Six is too many, but hopefully it does doesn't climb.
