Hit, Washington, IL pretty hard as well as two or three other towns in the area. One was sighted about three miles from us. Not by me...I was in the basement.

bongobobny Posted November 18, 2013 Share #10 Posted November 18, 2013 Yup! Sure was windy last night! We're fine but north of us there was a few power outages and a couple of downed trees, one of which hit someone's house... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BratmanXj Posted November 18, 2013 Share #11 Posted November 18, 2013 I live right on the IL/IN Boarder at the south end of the lake. Watched my garbage can take a 20 mph slide down the alley, raining sideways, flooded the driveway and yard (little bit of seepage into the basement) and power out from 12:00 PM till 8:00 PM. The area had the typical down trees but as a whole the Chicagoland area fared pretty well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nance56 Posted November 18, 2013 Share #12 Posted November 18, 2013 We just had strong winds and heavy rain. Power was out for a few minutes. Nothing like the people northwest of us. We were very lucky. Prayers for the victims. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dacheedah Posted November 18, 2013 Share #14 Posted November 18, 2013 Finding pictures and effects from Washington 30 miles away. Pages are up to recover and reunite people with their possessions. I drove home from deer camp and we were between cells it was eerie. Semi trucks tossed on their sides, every lighted construction sign thrown from their spots, one was a good 50 yards from the roadway. Thoughts and prayers to our neighbors south west.

RandyR Posted November 21, 2013 Share #19 Posted November 21, 2013 ....... Dynodon hasn't been on the forum for several weeks. Hopefully he's just too busy helping his neighbors right now to worry about the internet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prairiehammer Posted November 21, 2013 Share #20 Posted November 21, 2013 Has anybody heard anything from DynoDon??? He lives in Washington,Il. Hoping everything is OK. I was wondering the same thing, so I PMed Rick Haywood with the question. His response was that he had not talked to Don lately, but that Don lives a mile from the tornado path and would not have suffered any damage.
