2010, A Personal Look Back

Posted on 22:48 by Unknown
I'll admit that I don't have the best memory in the world, but like many of you, I've been reflecting back on 2010.  The high point for me was being in Oklahoma with Vortex2 on May 10th for the big tornado outbreak.That was very eye-opening and educational. My low point was my wife's car accident. Fortunately, God is in control and everything went as well as it could have in that situation. Glancing over each month... this is what stands out:

January: Haiti Earthquake and a pretty big snow in Region 8 near the end of the month.

February: Chile Earthquake and another big snow in Region 8. ALSO, one day all 50 states had some snow on the ground!

March: Some severe weather across the area including a tornado in Doniphan and some hail in Jonesboro.

April: Some storm damage in Marmaduke and a tornado at Big Lake and we had video!

May: Big Tornado Outbreak in OK. I was there with Vortex2

June: My family and I are on the beach when The Oil Spill slams Gulf Shores. Big history lesson for my boys.

July: Can't think of anything? I know I'm missing something!

August: New weather graphics and an entire overhaul of weather computers at KAIT!

September: My wife's car accident. Not fun.

October: Earthquakes in Guy, AR start ramping up!

November: Had my first White Thanksgiving! It was in Fort Leonardwood...

December: Lots of birthdays in our family! Plus, we began a new personal venture for our family... and of course, the tornadoes from Western AR stick out from New Year's Eve.

That's not an official year in review... It's just what is off of the top of my head. I hope all of you have a great 2011!

Take care,
Rya
