Did everyone survive May 30 storm?

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

We were in the motorhome in a rinky dink campground in far Western Ohio when it hit. The good news is we got pulled in and parked before the rain hit. Terry had gone inside to pay when the worst of it hit. I was on the cell phone with my mom, as I was sitting in the front seat with my feet up, looking out the big front window of the motorhome. I knew it was bad when the motorhome started rocking from the wind and I couldn't see even 4' in front of the motorhome!

I had the NOAA channel on the CB and after it was all over I heard there was a tornado sighted about 10 miles from us. Kinda nice, in the motorhome it doesn't matter if the power goes out because we always have the batteries and generator to run off. And we didn't even plug in anyway because of the chance of a power surge. Even though we have a surge protector in the motorhome, we didn't want to take a chance on frying the entire electrical system.

And 1/2 hour later, after all the heavy rain and wind was done, the sun came out and we had a beautiful double rainbow. A FULL rainbow with a slight double behind it. I got pictures, but haven't had a chance to get them off the camera yet.

So overall, it was an interesting experience. So far that is the worst storm we've been in while in the motorhome and overall we faired well.

Glad to hear everyone else is ok.

Wow Debbie!

That is the one time Kia hates thunderstorms is when we're camping. We had a nasty storm come off of Lake Huron and the trailer was shaking and Kia just yelped and panted. When it was over, tents had blown away and some awnings were bent over their trailers.
