Has anyone confirmed the "Twister" at Carlisle yesterday and determined the status of everyone? Type of damage, etc.?

Sorry, can't help. I've been avoiding the news. Too stressful for my current mental state.....Scary( the twister I mean). I'll hope for the best.

See this thread and the reply from Hmel '74. Doesn't sound like a Tornado, but it doesn't sound good...

I wanted a Corvette my whole life, but I never dreamed of all the wonderful people I would meet because of it!

No visual sighting of a twister and no physical evidence of a twister.

Lots of tents were twisted and busted at the fairgrounds, but the debris was all in a straight line from west to east. Very high winds with rain for about 5 minutes. It shook my car while I was in the parade on the main street. Lots of tree limbs and powerlines were down.

It put a real damper on Sunday mornings activities, but the show carried on.
