We aren't near done with cleaning up last weekends mess that tornados and straight line winds gave us, and they're firing up on the west side of N.Dak. again. Will be traveling right thru central ND into Minnesota again. We had clocked winds of 102 mph and calling for 80-90mph again with tennis ball size hail and tornadoes popping up. There is still literally 100's of uprooted trees all over the place. Some of the cemeteries lost many and toppled hundreds of headstones. Many just had power returned the other day. Storm chasers are already gathered in Bismarck.
I personally got very lucky with 1 downed tree, broken branches and limbs allover but some neighbors didn't fair so well. Snapped and up rooted trees. Have been helping others the best I can. ND Storm chasers can be viewed live on YouTube when they get going, get a little close to some of the tornadoes. Pretty scary . . .
 
You guys had some crazy toronados the other day. Stay safe sir. I know it's heading this way but it'll be pretty weak before it gets to me. If you need something let me know. I'm see what I can do.
EDIT: For everyone in the path of shut off these storms... STAY SMART STAY SAFE.
