John Vilnis on the Weather note

We don't really have tornadoes down here in Aussieland but we do get some good flooding. Aside from that, we are glad to hear that you are okay (You are okay right?) and that you were helping your neighbours. When it's ready we will be happy to read it. Take care Vanessa.

Dear John

We live in Tornado Alley. My home is very solid built, with lots of reinforced concrete. We have a very well built shelter and we have never had any significant tornado damage, the biggest damage is the one not making the news. It is the life stock. Horses and cattle are very much affected. One if our neighbors did have substantial tornado damage. There was significant flooding too and the aftermath and damage is still very much evident. Yes we are alright and we are unharmed, but much of the infrastructure, power lines, phone lines and cell towers have been damaged. But that is the price we pay to live here, so all is good!

Thank you for asking and caring
