Private Purdue reporting in....We, too, were quite lucky. The whole day was a nail-biter though. Daughter (who is living in Raleigh) flying in that morning, and arriving just before the bad stuff started. Other daughter on one interstate in the path of the storm and son-in-law on another interstate heading into it.

When the tornado/storm sirens started, all who were here at my house went to the basement...this included my 83 year old Dad and his dog who hates my cat. A scary time was had by all.

We lost our cable, thus the computer hookup and tv. Very frustrating to have just the radio for news.

Things are now back to normal here, but many in the area are still without power.

Thanks for thinking of me, glad to report all is well!
