    Just another mid-April snow storm. Should be getting another 8" of snow today and tomorrow. Winds are whipping, probably 25mph and gusting to over 40.

    Late response but same. Actually got water in my basement as a result of all the heavy rains a couple weeks ago. That's always fun... :(

    The heavy rains at work had water coming in places not seen before. The drains for the roof were overwhelmed. Ground floor had a river flowing down the hallway...

    Spent the entire shift chasing leaks. A door up on the roof penthouse wind pushing the rain past the seals...

    A building down the street had $1.5 million in damage due to flooding!

    Crazy weather day Here yesterday. 27 tornadoes reported. One was about 4-5 miles east of my house. Lots of damage. It caught a lot of people off guard because the weather channels didn't really forecast really severe weather. The storms were popping up and were fairly small in overall size, but they were producing lots of tornadoes.

    Looking at the Pella Vermeer plant, hope the employees are OK! Sheet metal building not a good place to be in a tornado.

    They had a fantastic storm plan in place, Only minor injuries. It was amazing since they had 100+ visitors in for their 70th anniversary.

    I work at Pioneer Hybrid's right now and we had some emails go out about our safety procedures. We have a lot of contractors from India and other parts of the world that don't know what a tornado is or what a tornado can do. So when the sirens went off, and the announcment over the intercom said to seek shelter, they ignored it.
