Wednesday night, St. Louis experienced a freak storm with winds up to 90mph in some areas of the city. Power is out in so many areas around the city it is estimated to take up to 4-5 days to get most of the city back up and running. Today, the national guard was called in to evacuate residents without air conditioning due to a heat wave that has swept over the entire region.
This evening some friends and I canceled a BBQ we were planning and instead drove around the Tower Grove area of the city cleaning up fallen trees from the streets and people's property. The damage is pretty intense all over the city - even a 60 sq. ft. section of the airport roof got whipped up in the air and taken all the way to the highway. Please keep all of us St. Louis people in your prayers as we work to clean up and rebuild from the storm.
