Another Round Of Florida Tornadoes
Here we go again! I woke up at 5am to the sound of thunder, turned on my pc to find out that all hell is breaking loose again in central Florida. Tornado warnings have been issued for Orange, Seminole, Volusia and Lake counties, with severe damage to "hundreds of homes" in Volusia and Lake counties, according to the Channel 2 website. I-4 is shut down from I-95 to 17-92 due to severla accidents caused by the severe weather.
So far at my house in Seminole County, we have had torrential rain and a lot of wind, but nothing extraordinarily severe. Hopefully no more damage will happen before these storms move eastward off the coast later this morning

This round of severe weather caught many residents here in the Orlando area by surprise, they went to bed with very little indications that the squall line that was going to move through the very early hours was going to be severe, the NWS did extend the Tornado Watch to our area but it was past midnight, many people were sleeping by then. Some TV stations are indicating that this outbreak's damage could be as bad or worst than the past Christmas tornado outbreak.
And to think that JB was just saying that EL Nino is already dead,

Just saw a church in Lady Lake is completely flattened. Look at this warning, "strong tornado". This turns my stomach, I had no idea Florida had storms like this.

This is just terrible. I am afraid they will find more dead. Has anyone heard from any of our S2K members in that area?
