You may have heard about the little weather disturbance we had in our area last Friday...
In addition to the dramatic destruction at Lambert-St. Louis International Airport, the tornado damaged more than fifteen hundred houses in a 22-mile long swath close to the airport. By shifting flights around to different concourses, the airport is almost back to regular service, but it will take a very long time till everything is back to normal
Tornadoes are funny things. We're only 20 minutes away from the airport, and our area has absolutely no evidence of the storm.
I had forgotten you lived there, we saw the news reports here and it looked horrifying for those involved. Glad you are ok, hope you had a peaceful easter.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you're okay. I happened to catch a video from a tape inside the airport earlier today...and it's amazing the power behind one. People were running to get out of the way.
ReplyDeletePretty scary.
Glad you are okay! We had a thunderstorm here with some really strong gusts of wind. I am glad I flew home earlier in the week!!
ReplyDeleteso glad you are okay! it's just fate I think.
ReplyDeleteI heard about that on the news and wondered if you lived close to the airport!
ReplyDeleteWoah, too close for comfort! Thank goodness you're alright and this tornado didn't touch you. How devastating for those who have no home to sleep in, I hope nobody was hurt or worse yet killed. And here I complain about 4' of snow.
ReplyDeleteAmazing! Glad you are OK.
ReplyDeleteThank goodnesss you're alright. We've been seeing newscasts about tornadoes and wild weather and it looks scary. We don't get the giant tornadoes in Hawaii like you do. Take care.
