Howdy grandmommy and pop! Momma and poppa are home, safe and sound! As for the property though not so much! The storm did get classified as a severe storm. The wind speed got up to 67 mph and the hail size was that of a dollar coin. There are tree limbs all over the place and trash all over the yards and streets. What is so amazing is that there is a tree split right down the middle! It's such a sight grandmommy. My neighbor has a big mess out in her yard. She has a big family which equals lots of trash so there are 5 trash cans full of trash scattered all in her yard! In this storm there was only 1 death and one guy in critical condition from lightning but will be okay. This is actually a great number though grandmommy because on average about 152 deaths from hail, lightning, flooding, and tornadoes a year. Storms really do affect humans; people loose their homes, their cars, and sometimes even their animals and their own lives. There is also a huge economic impact from severe storms. 580 million dollars a year is spent on fixing transportation things like air planes, boats, cars. FEMA spends 8-9 million dollars just on disaster relief. The country also spends about 12.5 BILLION dollars on property and agriculture damage. The good thing though is that I’m safe and plan on staying that way. Just make sure ya listen out for the weather and if I hear anything I will let ya’ll know right away! I love ya’ll lots and lots like tater tots. Xoxo. Be safe, talk to ya soon!
