June 3rd not a good day for Nebraskans.

On June 3rd, 2080 Grand Island, NE was hit with 7 tornadoes, hovering over that city and doing lots of damage. I don't remember it myself, but had relatives there and they talk about how horrific it was.

Yesterday, on the 34th anniversary of that storm, Nebraska got hit again. Our area got it bad and I think they did all through the sandhills..(Northern NE). It was forecasted for days "Nationally" so everyone had time to be prepared. We had huge hail and our insurance company sent men out to assess the damage today. Looks like we'll need a new roof. Compared to others, we fared pretty good. Our Shuh Tzu is still shaking from the sound of thunder and hail. She runs to the basement as I guess doesn't hear it as much there.

I'm glad you have a basement.

Be safe....

Sorry to hear it. Nebraska gets hit pretty hard but folks there sure know how to prepare and handle it. Yet I'm sure you didn't mean the year 2080?

Huge hail is very loud on the roof.
I know that sound well.
Roofs in Oklahoma have a half-life because of the frequent hail.

I hope everyone is okay in your area.

I didn't even notice that I had written 2080. Dementia.

As long as my family is all home and I know they're safe, then I'm good. Earlier when school is still in session is the scariest time for me. We have far less than some of the more southern states though. Thanks

Must be hell to be a farmer and see your crops pounded into the ground.
