Anyone get any storm damage last night? We lost power for about an hour, but no complaints here. Hope everyone is ok!
Re: Everyone ok?
Oh man, what a ride. We're fine here. I was a little worried about my little garden plot with the hail. We only had pea-ish sized hail, but still...some of the plants are still kind of small. Not only is the garden fine this morning, I think it looks even happier today than yesterday. Just tons and tons of rain here.
Red Rock on the lake burned last night
my bookshelf!

We got rain and hail in Norman but that is it. I will admit, I am disappointed. We want about $20k of work done to our exterior and everytime there is a storm, I beg Mother Nature to take care of it but...nada. We desperately NEED new windows (they are original), new gutters (seller installed them improperly so they don't work, isn't that nice), a new garage door (has been broken ever since we moved in), and I want new paint. Very frustrated. (I know this post is completely stupid but seriously, our deductible is around $6k so we would save massive moola by Mother Nature taking care of it).
Glad everyone is safe and suffered no substantial damage.
My sister lives not far from the capital, and a transformer blew...so she's been without power since the storms first started last night. Might be back on by now.
I was with her when the storms hit, and that was freaking scary. It looks like my car's OK, but I do have some dings. My mom ran into a storm outside of OKC and has some pretty decent hail damage [and her van's only a year old, boo], so they're dealing with insurance. I hope things are quieter tonight for everyone!
We weren't affected too much down here in Moore.
I wanted to drive by the house we're under contract on, but didn't make it up there today. Our realtor drove by and said our new neighborhood didn't get hit by the large hail, and that there were just lots of leaves strewn about--no limbs or other debris. Thank goodness!
Whoa, what??? Tell us more! Congrats!
Thanks! We put in an offer on a home in east Edmond this weekend and it was accepted! I'll post some pics once we close, don't want to jinx the process
Hopefully closing the second week of July.
