rusty959 Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 Up here in bloomington IN we had a good amount. Not as much as it seems there was down in louisville though. It quite interesting... I was out with my gf working on the mustang, pretty calm out etc, when we got the feeling it was about to storm. (it was already quite overcast, but all of the sudden it got extremely dark) So I grabbed the trunk lid that was out, carried it to the garage while she grabbed the cardboard it was on, and by that time it was sprinkling. By the time I walked out to grab the bag of sand, it was quite strong. By the time I got it in the garage, it was pouring. went into the house, looked out the back door at the rain, went to the garage, came back, and all hell had broken loose. (keep in mind this is a 1-2 minute time period through the entire story if you aren't following along) Trees down, grill flipped, etc. Enough of my rambling, here is some pics. There were also some trees down across some main roads, and the mall lost power for 2 hours. storm survivor...

BobbyG2 Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 I live in Florida, where everything is designed for stuff like this. It really sucks for KY because they have very lenient building laws, so if a bad storm goes threw there it wipes everything out...

hard_nox Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 Only lost power here (North Side of Lexington) for about 5 minutes, neighborhood flooded out in the usual spots...still watching the dumbasses think they can drive threw it. Feel sorry for my people in the 502. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rusty959 Posted August 5, 2009 Report Share Posted August 5, 2009 Rusty have fun with them leaners against your house man Ah, forgot to mention that wasn't my house. "mine" (parents) is the one with the flipped out dog and grill. About the leaners, luckily they didn't cause too much damage for them. It messed up the corner of the house as can be seen in the pic, and a little bit on the roof, but not too bad. Could definitely have been a lot worse. The one in the back did relatively nothing.

rusty959 Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 so... when I looked at my car after the storm, I only really looked at the one side where the branch was laying on it. Somehow there was only a little scuff/light scratch. On second look today, there is a nice scratch on the roof, as well as a pretty nice dent in the curve right above the windshield. now it really is time for some body work...
