Just curious how people are doing after that crazy storm that passed through the KC area on Friday afternoon.

I’m still without power in Waldo 48+ hrs after the event. While I avoided any property damage or injuries, I do have neighbors that had trees crashing down on their houses. Luckily they seem to have come out otherwise uninjured. I saw two houses behind McGonigle’s/Fareway Market on 79th and Ward Parkway where very large trees fell on the houses and smashed vehicles.

How are you all doing? Still without power? Braving the heat or found refuge elsewhere? Receive any storm-related damage?

    Seems like mainly tree damage in Lenexa (around 95th and Lackman). I personally did not have much, if any, but doing the daily walk with the dog there are a lot of trees in the neighborhood that have major sections having broken down. We did not lose power.

      Glad to hear you had no major issues!

      On Saturday night, I drove along 75th from Wornall to Metcalf. I Was trying to find something to eat. And there was a several blocks length of 75th that had no power. All the traffic lights and street lights were out. Not sure when/if all that got resolved yet.

      My coworker around 75th and 69 Hwy finally got power back this morning.
