[PVRCNC] tornadoes

[mike at bentwire.net]

We had tornadic activity very close by but it didn't touch down. Close
enough we heard the freight train. Lost the tops out of several trees on
my/neighbor's property. Before the storm my beam was pointed to EU. After,
it points to west coast and has a ~15 degree tilt to the elements. Rotor
indicator has been non-functioning for a while, so will just have to
'recalibrate'. Power was out until sometime late last night. Glad to hear
others are ok.

73, Mike N4GU
