    I also live in Raleigh. Luckily my part of town just got winds and rain, but no major damage. Saw the news and some parts got destroyed!

    On that note, is there anyone else besides Oompa that lives near Raleigh? Always love to meet other former JWs in the area.

    Night tornadoes are the deadliest. I hope all our friends are okay.

    Oompa glad to hear you were not in the path of the worst of it then.

    Robert7 you were one of the others I was thinking about. Good to hear you're alright as well.

    I'm still getting pm's on Facebook from others that don't post on here and it seems that most of them made it through without too much damage or hardships.

    Oh and by the way Robert7, I don't know if you still have the PM's from a long while back where we talked and you asked what part of NC I was in, but my offer still stands for both you and Oompa and any others you want to bring. It's coming up on summer and we will be going to the lake boating,camping and grilling out etc.. If you get some vacation time and want to head over this way you have an open invitation. We have a blast and usually have anywhere from 10-20 peeps show up.

    If you don't remember what part I'm in, just send me a PM. Don't want to post the exact details here in case any of the snitches from my last congregation may be lurking trying to figure me out. I always leave enough plausible deniability to turn their "theocratic warfare" right back at them.

    I saw a video once where she was being interviewed. Her Avatar and posts here are great but doesn't convey her personality fully. I would link it if I could.

    All's well in Western NC. The storms didn't do much in my area. They got really bad in the central and eastern part of the state.

    Hundreds of killer tornadoes have struck the US, leaving 45 people dead and a countless number of houses destroyed.

    Experts have predicted the weekend may have set a new record for the number of tornadoes in a three-day period.

    North Carolina was the worst-hit state, with 62 twisters ripping through the region on Saturday night, leaving 23 people dead.

    The storm system began in Oklahoma on Thursday evening before it strengthened and expanded through the southern states, including Arkansas, Mississippi, Alabama and North Carolina.

    Shocking!
