TORNADO---update--my area--Carrie

Post by barbaranoela »

Well I just read the paper----and I cant believe that this Torno. kinda swung the Tappan Zee Bridge---it is being inspected!!!! and the town next to us---was severly damaged--- and :arrow: :arrow: :arrow: :arrow:

Our Palisades Mall was refuge for people to ride out the storm---which is like a 10 minute ride from us---

CAROLE----I hope U werent there for your *cuts*

I tell U all--I still cant believe how *LUCKY* I am ----

Sunny today----but sticky----and soon the AC will be on~~~~

A good weekend to all
Barbara :bigbighug:

Morning Barbara,

I am so glad you are OK but did see that it hit where no one would expect a twister to do so. This weather is way beyond weird!

Many, many thanks for the card - it came just at the right time since I am a short-timer here and this place continues to change in a negative fashion and it is depressing. Shows I made the right decision and if life should ever get too hectic there I will do the same thing. By the looks of it, it is a really laid back place.

Love, Maggie
Maggie Scarpone

Hi Barb. Fortunately I wasn't at the Palisades Mall when the storm hit (although I was there last Thursday). We really didn't get much rain or wind up here in Newburgh but we did have a tornado watch for several hours. Scary. Might as well move to Kansas if the great northeast becomes the new tornado alley!

Love, Carole

So happy you are safe Twinnie. Must be pretty frightening, having those things so close. Do you think Carrie missed out on it too. I hope so.

Love

I was a little worried myself being not to far from it! I'm glad no one was hurt! My hubby's Aunt lives in Thornwood.......is that anywhere near you?

She comes down to CT. every summer - she has a cottage on a lake...I just saw her last night at a family picnic.

Happy Sunday - stay cool! (even though I know you already are! Ha! Ha!)

Love,
Mo
