We did fine here--some sticks and limbs in the yard, no ripped off roofs or torn up buildings. No one I know was hurt.
South side of Dothan had a tornado and Cottonwood is shut down. Only first responders and residents allowed in. They have a dusk to dawn curfew till further notice.
Place is a mess there.
Panama City is torn up again. What footage I've seen is bad. Reminds me of when hurricane Michael went through there.
A cousin lives in Panama City. He said it was gonna be bad when we were posting on FB.
He's ok. Been posting some footage.
Well, I need to get back to cleaning up. Didn't feel like it yesterday.
Was wondering how long ebay would let the old thread last. Typical.
Sure, folks will find their way here. They always do.
Watching Live at Lunch. Showing more footage.
Gonna warm up. Friday will be another enhanced risk of severe weather on the storm that will be coming through.
Don't know if Husband and Son will be able to stay home this time. It's predicted to be a level 3 of 5.
Good afternoon all,
Beautiful here - very warm - but I think it will - yet again - storm later.
Look at what this wet weather has done - they've gone nutso - bought in November - now.
Yes - Shirls - they did the roots excavating - now it's slowly dying.
Still haven't heard from their arborist - they told us they have had a report done.
I can't do anything until I get a copy of the report - there are very few level5 arborists in the area - I don't want to choose the same - it would be a conflict of interest.
It will be interesting though - it is this tree - $112 for a 14cm pot - this one is above the second story - was lush with many many lovely perfumed flowers.
Glad you made it, Fredi!
It was a beaut of a day here today! NO wind whatsoever, sun shine, and in the 50's. Spent some time in my back yard figuring out what I can do back there this spring. My old hibiscus bush died out, so had to cut that down. Last winter was so hard on stuff with the 40-50 mph winds for a day or two with temps below zero. My big old Burning Bush bit the dust too. It was aprox 7 ft tall and almost twice that in width so it made a peaceful, closed in corner back there. Now have these open spaces and not the lifetime to wait for something big to grow there.
Weather changes big-time tomorrow. 40mph winds with 50mph gusts and rain again. Cold Saturday, then Sunday night comes the snow. Big nasty system moving in from the west again ~ The Bombogenesis thing. Where do they get these names? Anyway, some will get blizzards(midwest and northeast) and down south tornadoes. I guess TN falls somewhere in between.
Dom, that is a pricey little tree, but lovely when mature. Is it a fast grower?

Burning Bush. It had an overhang over the fence, so trimmed it like an arbor. In the fall it's leaves turn bright red.
Middle photo: Big Sycamore behind the Mimosa tree. The Syc. is what died (lightening strike)and had to cut down leaving the 8 ft stump to decorate for Christmas. That was Bunny Bunny's hutch under the Sycamore.

This is where I spend a lot of my time 😋
