Pretty scary weather here SE MI- we had a what I would call a late spring massive storm- when there are the odd 90F days. But 78 when it is supposed to be 40 seems to be very similar.

Some tornado damage up in Dexter- hope everybody is ok up there. Started there, and headed SE across Ann Arbor, and is now finally heading over Monroe over Lake Erie...

83 and sunny here, we pretty much didn't have a winter this year. It sucks because I like cold weather. If this winter is any indication of what summer is going to be like, we're going to be roasted by August.

Good luck with the weather.

In reply to alfadriver:
Thanks for the heads up. Here on my part of Lake Erie it has been beautiful for the past two afternoon/evenings. We did get some rain and thunder during the sleeping hours.

Yeah,a quick look at the phone says it might suck here about 9:30 pm

I live 40 miles north of Henryville Indiana - you probably saw where it used to be on the national news. 2 little towns completely gone in minutes. Yeah, we've had weird weather here too.

Folks say that Florida has 2 seasons: summer and January. This year January was pretty much like summer in other parts of the country. Thanks to the fair weather, my electric bills for each of the last 4 or 5 months has been no more than $35. I am so worried tho that we will get crazy weather in the form of more and more violent hurricanes this year.

I know someone on this board is from Dexter, MI. Hope they're OK. Some major damage in the area!

Mississippi (yea, I spelled that) River Valley has been beautiful. 80 degrees and sunny, but the storms have reared their heads. One of my hobbies is storm chasing, so I get a little excited. We had some pretty nasty tornadoes within the last year, so its nothing new to me. The lowest Southwest corner of a sturdy building with no windows near is always the safest place to be.

I watched two tornados go by not 2 miles from my work on that same day.

I have had quiet but bright lightning since about 9:30. The rain just began at 10:10.
I was outside watching the lightning and it is all to the north. I am one mile due south of Lake Erie and the thunder I do hear seems to be north and possibly over the lake.
Heavy rain now.
What I read says tornadoes in Dexter and Monroe County MI

The news is reporting that over 130 homes were damaged, mostly in Dexter.

But the flip side- so far nobody was injured. Thank what ever you feel like thanking. Whew- that could have been ugly.
