Default Couple pics from todays storm **image warning**

These were taken just south of Rock Falls Illinois on an overpass over Interstate 88 facing east as the storm passed over. These were taken at roughly 4:55. Hope y'all enjoy, and be safe out there!

That storm is bearing down in us now, I heard possible 70-80mph winds. Watching weather channel that front goes as far north as Madison, WI. It just got really dark here.

Thanks for the well wishes guys, and we hope you guys in effected areas got off easy! We got off a lot better than predictions predicted. They were calling for hail and 60+mph winds but I don't think we got that, at least not in my neck of the woods. First storm was more rain than anything, but when the second storm hit, our power flashed and it was quite a lighting show. All came out fine, though.

Thought you guys might enjoy this pic, too. I really enjoy being out in severe weather, and snapping what pics I can. This is from a real barn burner of a storm almost exactly 1 year ago. I was on the way back to work from the store and saw this coming in. I pulled over and snapped a pic just in time to beat the downpour of rain. As I drove along, less than a minute later, through the blinding rain and winds, a tree got knocked down across the road just in front of me. If I hadn't stopped for that pic, I may have been under it.

That's something else, Ryan. Taking that pic may have saved your life.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
