local news has broke out the "debris tracker". Tornado warnings are up and around, but so far nothing confirmed
I think its about 15 minutes from getting in our neck of the woods, bad stuff is just south of the Ohio river

One storm went through here about 11:00 this morning. There were some areas that were hit hard.
Nobody's right if everybody's wrong. Getting into reloading to save money is like getting married for free sex.

They sent my son home from work at noon today, they don't close for snow I just had to go clean out the drains in my yard, they were clogged and I had a small lake. Its been awhile since I had to do that but that's the worst of it. South of here are having a bad time - Brooksville, KY area

The weather folks have become drama queens. \ I asked a local educator what was up with all the school closings these days when there is a weather threat, as opposed to an actual weather event. He said it's due to the world we're living in today, where people and lawyers are just looking for something to sue someone over, and the school systems are just covering their butts. I can understand that, even though it doesn't make sense sometimes.

Local news says one touched down in Sunbright, later showed a few locals' videos of damage to buildings and flipped over trees. I guess Cumberland County has another couple hours of Watch, but it looks to be northeast of us. Lotta local stuff closed early today, of course local government, because they can always use an afternoon off with pay...

A small twister skipped across S. Bourbon Co. today. I didn't see it, but the narrow path & the damage would certainly indicate what it was.. I did see part of damage.
Lots of high dollar Thoroughbreds in equine hospitals tonight from one very large barn that got hit.. Thankfully, no reports of human injuries.

Not to mention because of the scare folks are used to school closings. Most don't like it but it is what it is. Around here all kids have school supplied laptops, I can look daily or weekly and my kids scheduled work is on it. Lazy ass society nowadays

Our school system dismissed after lunch today when the bad weather was scheduled to arrive at 3:00pm dismal time. Fully understand the concern regarding lawyers. Half of our student population receive free or reduced lunches. If something happened to one of our students, negligence or not, without a doubt there would be a lawsuit sponsored by an ambulance chaser working on a percentage...

This and also as someone mentioned with todays tech like Zoom etc, missing in person time isnt much of a big deal as they can still hold "class" online. I know a vast majority of community colleges around here have transitioned to a majority of online classes as a way to reduce staff and infrastructure costs.
