I'm okay...

[gerisullivan]

...but my grocery store in Monson is in rough shape at best. Thanks to elaine_brennan, I have a photo of it, and am following the CoverItLive feed where I'm not the only one concerned about the damage in Monson, the tornado near Brimfield, and the touchdown in Sturbridge, too.

Earlier this afternoon, debgeisler sent me a screen capture of the National Weather Service forecast for Wales, with its six (count 'em, *6*) hazardous weather conditions:

-- Tornado Warning
-- Severe Thunderstorm Warning
-- Tornado Watch
-- Severe Weather Statement
-- Flood Advisory
-- Hazardous Weather Outlook

Much as I miss having kip_w, malibrarian, and their incomparable daughter Sarah as my closest fannish neighbors, I'm very glad they weren't living in West Springfield today.

Lotta those going around this year. Glad you're OK.

Glad to hear you're OK. I'm trying to find out about a friend in Springfield, who didn't answer the phone a little while ago.

Oh my, that was right down the street from our old house! Glad to hear that you were well out of it, hope the house is OK.

Crap. Weather gods are not happy this year.

Augh. I am so glad you were well away from any possibility of harm, but I hope you hear about Toad Woods soon.

So very, very fired, 2011.
