Wind and rain mostly....

Was there any actual tornado touchdowns? I haven't heard of any.

They were all radar indicated. Just rotation seen on radar, no funnels (but they could had formed fast)

It's now policy to sound the sirens for dangerous high winds now. Since they were saying up to 70mph, it was a good call.

When they went off, I went on the porch like any good midwesterner...

Yep, I spent most of the night on the porch.  

Some good lightning/thunder on the storm that came through after the initial storm front.

So far they're say it's mostly all tree damage.

The scammers will hit them tomorrow. The "roof damage" scammers. We had them come through for a few days after last week's storms. Trespassing, refusing to leave, targeting seniors, fake soliciting licenses, etc.

We didn't have hail in our town.

On a more positive note, the "free firewood" ads have started showing up.

The amount of those fucktards that swarmed here in May 2018 after the big hail storm that hit the area. One I chased from my driveway to a waiting truck and took off. Local PD found them and "encouraged them" to leave town. Some fuckers from Texas. One guy called a week later and told my mom that they were coming out to check the roof per the owners request. Guess they didnt realize the owner of this duplex is MY BROTHER. He already had his guy come out and look at it. She told them to fuck off and dont try. Local PD was busy for 2-3 weeks chasing those assholes around. Thats why I have no tresspassing/no soliciting signs up and yet they ignore them.
