The mangled remains of the frame from a highway sign up in a tree in our neighborhood. This is from at least 2 miles away from the highway and about 250 yards from our house.

Well it looks like we'll be without power again tonight. Union Electric had a strong presence in the area but the damage is too widespread.
The first picture is from an apartment complex across town. Their covered parking collapsed on all the cars. The second is from about 1/2 mile down the road from us. The top of the pole is just dangling there.
It's unclear when electricity will be restored. Our daughter is staying with a friend who still has power.
Stay safe and have a good afternoon.
We are in South County about 7 miles from our house getting lunch. These pictures are all from within a mile to two miles from our home. The blown over tree is maybe 250-300 yards from our driveway. One of the tornadoes was very close to us.
Good morning my tooting friends. It’s a wonderful cool morning at 18c & heading to a pretty good 29c. More thunderstorms forecast as well, but although there are clouds
about, they aren’t rain clouds
at the moment #Weather.
I’m planning to go swimming this morning but I might be on my own as I’ve had msgs from my daughter & my friend to say it’s too cool for them & they’ll give it a miss. I find the water nice & warm though so I’ll be there & hoping the rain stays away, although if it’s just rain I won’t care #Exercise #Swimming.
My gazebo seems to have a bit of damage, from what I can tell, it’s not easy to see as there’s still water on top of it, there are quite a number of holes, most seem small, but I can see at least one or two bigger ones. I’ll have to wait until it’s drier for a proper check. #StormDamage
Have a great #Monday everyone, hope it’s not too hot, nor too wet wherever you are. Take care out there .

The first big storm of the season took our power out for twenty-four hours. Some in the area were out longer, some shorter.
This morning’s walk—we skipped yesterday, opting to drive to the donut shop*—displayed how rough the ordeal was for the area. There was a tornado just fifty miles to the north of us. Cleanup crews across the state are going to be extremely busy.
*Same two regulars were there. We were glad the shop had power.

As high school football season kicks off this weekend in Texas, the lights are not shining at three Houston ISD stadiums that remain closed because of storm damage.
The campus shared by Cage Elementary and Chrysalis Middle School, along with Kelso Elementary and Sinclair Elementary, were the most significantly damaged Houston ISD schools during last week's storm, according to the district.
Roughly 70 of Houston ISD's 274 schools remained without electricity as of Friday, according to the school district, which has been closed since Hurricane Beryl blew through the region on Monday.
“Just because your neighbors were able to easily remove a tree doesn't mean you are,” an expert said. “Just thinking before you act is probably the single best step that you can take right now.”
One of the biggest and most recognizable buildings in Houston sustained damage due to Hurricane Beryl.
Galveston is still in the process of recovery efforts after Hurricane Beryl, and city officials say there's more damage than expected.
Nearly three weeks after the deadly windstorm that rocked the Houston area, there are piles of debris waiting to be picked up. The city's Solid Waste Management Department said collections efforts are expected to take three months.
