    I live on Oakland Ave, I walked around Patterson and whatever street is south of Oakland... Basically two blocks. It was considerably worse but they've cleaned up a lot.

    This is a shot down Patterson facing west. You can tell where there were branches laying.



    There was a tree laying across Neil Ave but they cleaned it up I think

    OU's baseball stadium had the LF and RF walls blown down, the summer league team that rents it is fucked right now. Has to play all road games for now.

    LF wall flat out got blown over, snapped the wooden supports at the bottom. RF wall got nailed by the airborne metal tarp roller, which took the wall out and the roller landed in the softball field out behind the (former) RF wall

    Here's the LF wall

    I noticed the big Ohio State logo was missing from the south end of the stadium. Not sure if it blew down or if they're renovating it.

    They are redoing the scoreboard. So hopefully that was planned.

    That makes sense. I don't drive by there a whole lot so I didn't know.

    Planned.

    The logo is leaving. The scoreboard will say Ohio Stadium above it.

    Fancy. Didn't they redo it a few years ago?

    Most recent upgrade was the banners on the front of the decks, didn't think they had messed with the scoreboard that recently.

    It's going to be one mammoth screen instead of having all the advertising around it.

    The specs are pretty badass. Going to be one of the largest screens in all of sports.

    Went to blend on woods to disc golf today. It was crazy how many huge trees were down. Hey had cleared the main paths of the course but there were easily 100-150 trees down.

    Also saw a picture of a house in groveport where the trampoline went threw the side of the house

    Judging by the uptime on my router and my DynDNS update time, my power kicked on at 9:22PM tonight.

    Somebody sent this to me today...supposedly it is before and after shot from space on the massive power outage. Cool even if it not that.....
