Please don't post to Dawn's warning threads
Comments (15)When I lived in OK, I greatly depended on this board for warnings in bad weather. We could not get a signal for our weather radio, none at all. When storms started, our satellite TV would go out and our satellite internet would as well once the storms were on top of us. Long before the storms reached us, the satellite internet would slow way, way down so that we could not view radar online and, often, anything on the weather sites. However, I was usually able load GardenWeb, I guess due to it being ancient software and mostly text. This thread reminds mme I never finished setting up my weather radio here. I started on it a couple of weeks ago but got distracted. I'll do that today! Also, I want to clarify something that I think is causing a misunderstanding between Paula and Susan: When a new thread is posted, it's at the top of the board and will remain there until someone replies to it -- for several days. After that, it will eventually slide down the page. But, when newer threads (not replied to) are posted, the do bump the previous, unreplied-to threads down, one spot at a time. They don't go down and mix into the lower, replied-to threads. They just slide a little, in order of age. Am I making any sense? Cuz it doesn't feel like it. LOL Susan must have seen a couple of newer unreplied-to threads ahead of this unreplied-to thread and thought it had started its slide into history when really it was still stuck at the top, just not the very tip-top. Or maybe not but that's just what I assumed happened. Again, it fees like I'm making no sense. LOL Hopefully, someone knows what I'm trying to say and can translate. After I have more coffee, I won't even know what I was saying! Diane...See MoreTuesday's Post-Tornado Check-In Thread
Comments (30)Impatience, They still do that here! Last night, our county deputies and other storm spotters were out spotting storms. The one closest to us was on a bridge about a mile from our house as the crow flies. I was glad knowing he was there since it is on much higher ground than we are and I knew he'd see the tornadoes before we did. And he did, too, so we had advance warning to stop staring at the sky and get into the shelter. They do not necessarily drive around with their sirens on alerting people in our county depending on where the storms are because Thackerville, Marietta, Shady Dale and Greenville, I think, all have storm sirens that the firefighters sound when a tornado is spotted near them or is known to be moving towards them. Out in less populated areas, some of the firefighters do drive around in the firetrucks sometimes sounding their sirens to alert folks. Leava, I'm glad to hear you and Jeff are alright and the storm missed y'all. We were really worried about you last night as the storms sounded too close to yall for comfort. I would have been worried about you, Miraje, but I knew you were chasing the storms while the rest of us were running from them. I am glad they missed your home. Suzie, I was nervous on your behalf, just hoping you made it home from work before it got to your place. I knew you had a shelter and would be in it if you got home before the storm arrived, so I'm glad you left work early. Down here, the Ardmore schools let the kids out at 1 p.m., so I knew that folks in Carter County were indeed watching the skies and taking the storms seriously. Apparently a lot of schools around the state did that too, and I think it is a smart move. I'm hoping they find the 3-year-old alive too even though I know the odds are against it. Last night many of Tim's and Chris's coworkers from the D-FW metro area were calling and texting us and checking on us throughout the storms. Ironically, after we were in the clear here, the D-FW metro area was hit by much worse storms that we had here in Love County, and some of those co-workers had much more storm damage than we did.

Comments (13)Thank you, Ladies! In spite of my touch pad and the fact that when I "right click" on the image it gives me the prompt: "Copy Image Address" rather than Locations (which saves me the time of highlighting and copying the long string of characters), the directions were perfect. I will copy these and keep it for future reference. For now, I'm going to post more lovely pictures. Thank you!...See MoreAnyone willing to post follow ups to earlier posts?
Comments (27)Squirrel was very helpful to me about a month ago with a bathroom update...I have the cabinets primed, and paint determined, but we've had 2 deaths in our family since then, an out of town family wedding, and I can't forget the solid week of 2 kids with h1n1...And now I have my 81 year old father staying with us for 2 weeks. Then comes Thanksgiving with a boat load of company here...so I'm hoping by December to have the room done and will post pics then. So I haven't been purposefully neglectful ;) ...I just haven't had time to paint and be done! I will though...I am looking forward to it very much! And I promise to post pics when I'm done. Crossing fingers for Dec with no other chaos interfering!! I'll be back soon hopefully!...See MoreRelated Professionals
