Not bad here yet - I'm on the East side - most of the weather is happening on the west side - it will eventually move to me. I'm in chambers county so if anyone hears anything - please post.

Thanks

Tornado just sw of me...going to get in building...This is nuts...it's crazy outside...my building just shuttered..going now!

Torrential rains(3.52"/hr rate), lightning, thunder, winds gusting around 30-35 mph estimated. Rough on the west side and there is a tornado warning for a cell coming in from Sugar Land right over me and Garnet and my house too!!! No apparent twister yet!!!!! Definitely nasty weather though and they say the bad stuff is supposed to hit this evening??? :eek:

Posted: **Mon Nov 17, 2003 1:25 pm**

Wow Garnet and David - sound like some powerful storms - yeah this morning they said the storms won't be here until this evening - but what's new....keep in touch and stay safe.

I'm down in the dungeon here at work - so I don't know what the weather is like....unless the lights go out.

Tornado on the ground as reported by Garnet!! I could pick it out on the radar. It is SW of me and hopefully my house where my wife and son are now!!!! Reports of numerous overturned vehicles in SW Houston near Airport and SW FWY. ALL HOUSTON AREA POSTERS STAY ALERT AND TAKE COVER!!!!

Ticka it looks like it may bypas you to the NW. Just looked at radar again. This particular cell is gonna miss you Ticka. It is raking the NW side now, just to my NE(over my house). I think(hope) the twister is gone now. I don't see an indication on radar.

It is right over my house!!!!! I can do nothing but pray they stay safe!!! They did just call and say all is well so far!!! I hate knowing so much sometimes!! I can pick the hook out easily!!!!
