Tornado (EF0) at the Aborn's

Our storm damage was minor but it was enough for me to freak out!! The roof will have to be replaced along with the siding and one window on the end of the house. The siren's woke me up at 6:06 am and by 6:28 am David was outside calling his brother-in-law, the Roofer Man, Kenny. By 7 am Kenny and his crew had our house tarped and temporarily fixed and went to work on our neighbors. We have a lot of water damage on the ceilings inside the house and don't know if the insurance company will replace the ceilings or not. The insulation all got wet in the attic and the entire house is starting to smell. We only lost one window and it is at the head of Clay's bed. We had just got him out of his room and in a closet when it busted. Glass is everywhere and I think the insurance company may replace the carpet. When I called about our claim, they said we would be at the top of the list for the adjusters to come see because I'm am due to have Spencer in 7 days!!!! Our agent wants us to be able to bring him home to a complete house and not one missing a roof! (Some of the pictures are grainy because it ws so dark when I took them. The sun was coming up but the clouds weren't helping. I had to lighten them up after I downloaded them but you can still see the damage.)



My favorite tree in the whole yard, twisted and snapped. It's the main trunk too so the whole tree will probably have to come out. It's in the backyard by the deck. The dogs are all ok but an extra dog house we have that was on the deck was found about 1/8 mile east of the house in a pasture with some heifers.
This is what we saw when we looked ot the window first thing after the storm. This is across the street. Our neighbor's, Bill and Terri Philpott park their vehicles under trees to minimize hail damage. Didn't work out so well for them this time. The suburban here was driveable once they got the tree out but there is a chance that the insurance compan will total it because of the damage to the cab. Their son, Mark's truck had a limb go through the roof so it is totaled. It ran long enough to move it and that was it.
