All QB members OK?
 
some tornadoes went thru central Illinois. I hope all is well. Family and friends are all fine!

We had a tornado warning here in south central Indiana, but only got rain thankfully!

We watched the tornado that hit Coal City from our front stoop. Waiting to hear from another QB'er who lives in that city.

It was extremely windy here today, but we didn't see any tornadoes. Still here.

Sorry to hear about the bad weather. Hot and sultry here in SE Texas.

Watches and warnings all the way to the Mackinaw Bridge, but we only had huge amounts of rain - add in flood warnings - with 50 mph winds expected after midnight. This is November????

It looks like Illinois took the brunt of it. Especially Washington, IL.

We just talked to my hubby's cousin who lives in Peakin, IL. She had damage around her neighborhood but they are OK, Thankfully.

An hour south of Springfield, we've got no damage. Wind and rain was it. There was big hail a bit north of us and Pekin and Washington look bad in pictures coming up on the WICS News Facebook page.

I'm in Lincoln, IL, 40 minutes north of Springfield. We had tornado warnings and high winds, some branches down but the worst went just north of us. My son in Peoria had part of the flashing torn from his house and maybe some roof damage. The quilt shop in Washington, Peddlars Way, sent an email to its subscriber list that the shop was OK but without power and it would be closed for at least 1 day, or maybe longer. This a really cute shop, near the downtown square that has some other fun shops. I'm hoping those businesses were spared.

Morning from Michigan, we were under tornado watches but nothing except heavy rain and high winds. Hope everyone else is okay.
