We've had 4 tornados across the state today that, on a scale that was supposed to be 1-10, all exceded 10. They were 12, 15, 17, and idk the other. There have been 5 deaths reported so far. The worst one that rated 17, went just south of my city, and just exited my county.

And there's warnings/watches throughout the state. My area's under watch - we seem to get missed by the bad ones... hopefully that continues to be so, and hopefully Z's area avoids tragedy as well!

Wow... I'm supposed to be going there mid may to play in a golf tournament. Hopefully they slow down. Stay safe man.

It did, but Tuscaloosa and Cullman have had major damage from the tornados that hit there. Thanks k0nane. Hope all goes well for your area as well.

Me too. I still can't believe we had this many tornados in one day here. And the fact that they were as bad as they were makes them even more unusual.

I watched these storms today, cause I live in South Carolina. This storm was massive. My condolences go out to the family's and people who have lost much cause of this storm!

They said that they had been using it for 3 years. Idk what it was called, but if it helps, i was watching ABC 33/40. I say that cause you might be able to find what that scale is on google if you are interested.

I'm glad things missed you. I'm keeping everyone involved in my thoughts. So far they have reported at least 32 dead from this storm. It is headed toward my area now, we're under a tornado watch at the moment.
Here's hoping for the best!
for anyone wondering, there was an F5 in Alabama, I believe.
EDIT: death toll now up to 64 and rising from one storm system. The rain just started here in NE Atlanta.
I'm feeling a bad weather year.. we've been getting tornado warnings/watches here at the beach, which isn't ordinary..

I think we are all in for a major hurricane season this year,as well as bad tornadoes and heat.
...and it survived like a boss. Only a small scratch on the back cover.
My iPhone had a much less drastic fall and was destroyed.
Also dropped my Note while cycling. The silicone case took all the shock so my Note is still in a perfect state.

haha, btw, i also like your survive like boss analogy!. but certainly my note is more lovely!!
my note fell twice already. once from a normal table down on the hard ceramic floor and once from the bed down on the wooden floor. not a scratch. having previously owned the HD2 i've come to expect that kind of endurance from a smartphone, and the note didn't dissapoint.
U guys r lucky. I dropped my note once and the top has a small chip. Heavy phone = larger impact

Are you practically saying that any person living in a farm should not have a smart phone??
Answer to your first question "why do you have a smart phone?" is " what's it to you ??? and you said " i don't get it " and answer to that is " he doesn't need you to understand why he bought his galaxy note" as that is none of your frickin business.... HOPE YOU GET IT NOW....

Well I dropped once on a ceramic floor while forgot that my headphone cable was still attached as was pulling it and it literally flew off lol and second time on wooden floor ..My note is like as new hehe Though using a hybrid case..
Alright well I had these opening on the side of my epic form dropping it so much and one day I had it in the bathroom while the shower was running and I think the steam killed the screen. it slowly "Faded to black" literally it took like two days lol. It's been two weeks and Im finally calling it quits and getting a new one. Im considering sending it out if anyone wants to play with it, if you fix it I may be able to buy it from you at a reasonable price. But my main question is, does anyone want it?
stop!
Just wannna make sure you know how assurion works:
1. report a phone as broken
-required to send in device
-100 dollar deductible
2. report devices as lost
-phone blacklisted from all further sprint services, bad esn
-100 dollar deductible
3. report device as stolen
-require police report
-100 dollar deductible
-black listed esn.
I have a screen laying around. I'll totally grab it from you and fix it. PM me if your serious buddy.

So thia is a true story
Last week I got drunk, once again, it was raining heavily and I was riding my little motor on a sloppy road with water up to half of the wheels (I live in Vietnam and tha is normal, 90% people use motors and the infrastructure is terrible).
Let's make it short, when I stopped by the gate, I forgot my bag was in front of my legs and it spinned around, dived into the water, spilled all of the stuff outside, including my Galaxy S2 and Galaxy Young. I was freaked out, though drunk I managed to pick them up, removed the battery immediately, I noticed the Galaxy Y was looking alright, but the S2's screen was flashing like a PC when the electricity goes out.
I got home, scared like hell, I went to youtube to find some guide, I managed to take my s2 apart, it was crazy since it was very well made and I thought I was going to break it. Same for the Galaxy Y.
I took a day to seperate all of the parts in front of a fan...when I got home the next night, I fixed all of them together, and boom they are all working fine like charm! Not only being surprised by that, the most crazy thing is that now I don't have the yellos triangle on my s2! I rooted my phone for a long time and never bothered having that yellow icon, but now it's gone! So that's the story of the one-and-the-only craziest way to remove the yellow triangle I ever know
