One of the tornados hit the dealership.... It wasnt fully formed though so it didnt do any damage to it. Just some trees blown around. It did however hit Lakeview Medical and Obici pretty hard. It tore the new Obici building to pieces.... There were 3 tornados total that hit Pruden Blvd in Suffolk. Bennet Mills is tore up pretty bad.
Me and another guy I work with were out back when the tornado hit the ground and started coming our way.... We were running our asses off to get in the building. As soon as we got in the service department it hit the building.... You could see it start to pick up a few trees. Instantly lost power.... Sewage pipes were busted up in peoples yards in downtown Suffolk. So far no one was killed.... IIRC.
Traffic was horrible last night!!!! Route 460, 10 and 58 were completely blocked off.... It took me over 2hrs last night to get out of just Suffolk. You still cant get into Suffolk. People can walk to their houses, but they cant drive. Their cars are parked on the side of Route 10 right before Kings Fork Highway....

Hey Guys,
I sighted a nice Navy Blue Metallic SS this morning while headed home....around 9:30 or so. The guy was on 64 headed away from the base and got off on the 284A exit. Looks to have a Corsa catback, wheels and lowered..big meats in the rear.... and an SLP emblem on the rear drivers side. Had a personalized plate that started out with TUF...... I wont post the rest.
Was that any of you? If so...nice ride.

No we have power at the dealership. You just cant get into certain parts of Suffolk now. From Kings Fork Highway to The on ramp for Route 58 is closed. And the Lakeview Medical patch is closed. Other then that, we are good to go.

You guys doing a custom cam or an off the shelf? Did he lower the car? I liked the stance.
I was in the wifes truck, but I saw that hotrod coming from a quarter mile back.

I know today has been nothing.... Traffic is still ridiculous out here. Hopefully by the weekend, it will pick back up though. People have already come by to start renting vehicles until the Insurance companies figure out if they are gonna total or fix the cars.

Hope you all are safe! Saw the storms on TV yesturday. We had a similar tornado back in February very close to my house and it was an F3 as well. No deaths, just a lot of damaged houses, K-mart, Banks, Wal-mart, etc. It was really bad and the pictures look the same in Va as they did here in AL.
