Priest River Storm Damage
Wow. That was some storm last night. The crashing and booming must have lasted for at least 3 hours.
We were fortunate here. All that happened is that I now have to re-stack this woodpile! Guess all the shaking was more than it could take.
In town, trees fell on homes, causing a ton of expensive damage. I have to wonder if the insurance companies will cover it, or if they’ll call it an Act of God and say “Sorry.”
Let’s all hope for the best on that one.
Tomorrow I’ll go back to town with my camera and bring you more photos. Meanwhile, I’m glad there are no reports of injury.
If you have stories or photos of what happened at your house, please share!

Interesting weather program on the History Channel from what I seen on utube.com submitted by Lisa Lilian. It stands to reason if they were working on controlling the weather by seeding the clouds to cause rain back in the 30’s they would have progressed some by now. Weather control would be an important weapon in any nations bag of tricks.

So sorry for all that’s happening up there. Just have to ask, did any of you see the History channel last week, “Weather Warfare”? It was quite interestesting. check out this link about the show at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3gKa0z7rjM
