My wife made it back to our house this morning. It missed us by less than a block.

They have state troopers checking ids at every entrance to our neighborhood and cars can't get down our street. Luckily we live on the corner and she was able together into our driveway.
We have no visible damage while the house literally next door is damaged and three houses down they have major damage. Had we bought the other house we looked at in our neighborhood we'd be looking at serious trouble.
The link below is not our neighborhood but it is the same tornado as it was on the ground for at least six miles (and hit the airport).
We are luckier than you could ever believe.
