Hope Robert and family are OK.
This was another monster of nature. It was a series of Tornadoes, not a hurricane. I think the main difference is that with a hurricane you have some warning, but with a twister you do not.

He posted this morning. I imagine he's alright and likely his family or he wouldn't be posting today.
But I'm glad some people here are actually concerned.

Re: Robert Hyatt
There are power shortages everywhere in Alabama, now, so probably in Birmingham too. Plus the devastation everywhere probably put Bob's mind a thousand miles from talkchess. Still, it's a worry Hopefully Bob will come soon to tell us he and his family are safe.
My prayers will flew to the USA, tonight.

Re: Robert Hyatt
We are OK. We had major tornados north, south, east and west of us, but thankfully none on top of us. The folks in Tuscaloosa, North Birmingham and points east along that incredible 3+hour on-ground track were not so lucky. "The" tornado went just north of UAB as well, perhaps a mile or two at most, so no damage there other than tree limbs broken by the wind caused by the inflow.kgburcham wrote:Robert are you ok this morning?

Lots to be thankful for, many died, many more injured, and major parts of Tuscaloosa look like a bulldozer cleaned out both sides of a major highway, nothing left but the slabs. Debris from Tuscaloosa was found in Gadsden, 100 miles east. This was some storm.
This was one of those "perfect storm" scenarios. It had been predicted for a week. Just the right atmospheric heating, humidity, uppper-level wind shear. Every storm that fired up started to rotate and then dropped a tornado. And as the storm drained the energy stored in the atmosphere, they spun up into ferocious tornados. One was on the ground for over 3 hours, starting in Mississippi, passing thru alabama, and crossing over into Georgia, leaving a 1+ mile swath of destruction all the way. Like an enormous bulldozer would do.
Thanks for the concern, thankfully my family and I are all OK. Others were not so fortunate.
