I live about 45 minutes from Greensboro
Never have I seen lighting like I did on Thursday night. it was so un real.. 10:oo pm my yard stayed lit up,
I wanted to take a photo of it, but was told NOT TO OPEN THE DOOR, my kids were very scared. so I did not open the door so they would feel save.
Where my husband works is a mess. He went to work yesterday, to be told to go home, there was a road block set up not allowing anyone in the area.
His boss called yesterday to give a update to be ready to work Saturday and maybe Sunday.
They still have the area under a road block. He has left for work. He was told to tell the police who he was, where he was going and they would check to see if he was allowed in the area. They are going to try to get some of the mess cleaned up
I know this post needs photos... sooo
These are photos from the air, that were taken.
YOu just have to look at the blessing in this. If this storm went by just a few hours earlier or later many people at this place would have been hurt.
