Trees were on roofs of houses, trees down all over the neighborhood, trees sheered off at the tops. It was borderline between severe thunderstorm and tornado. There was quite a bit of hail, did damage to our car.

In continued on across Matthews-Weddington Road where it leveled a barn on the Black farm. Then it entered Union County and took out a house on Potter Road in Stallings, the only house that it destroyed or hit. You could see the swath on Tilly Morris for twenty five years if you knew to look for it.Aubrey Moorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03729435398376367124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4086349103307829625.post-73150374330758956192011-04-18T22:46:40.678-04:002011-04-18T22:46:40.678-04:00Steve, ignore the miserable and petty idiots who f...Steve, ignore the miserable and petty idiots who feel the need to be negative about every little thing.
