over the last week we have had 14 confirmed tornadoes throughout the state ranging from ef-0 to ef-2 lots of damage all over. 6 deaths.
a few places that was hit by hurricane Matthew last year are under water again from all the rain. those poor people can not catch a break..... more unstable weather is expected this weekend, really hope the weather person is wrong...

read that out in hickory the police stumbled across a opium poppy field of about an acre in size..
net worth 500 million dollars, it's the second of it's kind to be busted in the usa. glad they found it heroin is running wild everywhere.

one of our employees son od on it last week.. that was a sad funeral to go to, he had his whole life ahead of him...
we at Piedmont raised 4.6k to help out on the funeral costs.... good work people!!!!!!

it's 3:52 do you know where your children are ???????

almost forgot the big news a 7 mile portion of the I-73 is open hopefully this will take a ton of traffic off nc-68 once fully finished....

glad to hear you are doing OK down there in NC with all those storms going on. i heard that opium poppy story too & was wondering how close that could have been to your area. funny they never noticed it before but the guy apparently was waiting for someone to approach him.

Opium poppy field? :thAround here, it's weed fields. Sometimes they marijuana plants have to be chain sawed down, they get so big!

They passed a vote for medical marijuana here so I suppose they will be growing it legal pretty soon. Unfortunately, methamphetamine is the king here. Drug labs everywhere.

What a tragedy! You never can be too prepared. How would you prepare for this unless you lived in an underground bunker (or house). :hit

It's a plague everywhere. Until the masses start helping the police clear this mess up, it will continue.
