my neighbor had a huge tree limb fall on his house, luckily it didnt harm anything, but those winds were vicious there for a small period of time.

Some high rainfall totals (radar estimates) showing up from today. Looks like we just missed out on some even worse though with those across southern KY in McCreary and Whitley counties (just to the west and south of Corbin). Another round of storms and heavy rain tomorrow. A signifcant more widespread severe weather event possible for much of the Ohio Valley Friday possibly into Saturday...we might get in on some of that too Saturday.
