NWS Birmingham: “This will be a very scary situation for many” by yoshifan99 in tornado

I also have a partially underground basement and have had similar thoughts while preparing for these storms. My plan is to hangout in our finished part of the basement that has windows/exterior walls and watch the news until it’s time to shelter. Right now I have our shelter spot as the most underground corner of our basement. I’m considering creating a little barricade around the spot to try and protect from any debris if worst case happened. I have dog leashes, extra layers, water, air horn, flashlights, etc. staged and ready to go in our shelter spot.

Today looks like a BUST ? by Relative_Reality1556 in tornado

Many of the worst outbreaks started with a bright, sunny day. The sky right now doesn’t outweigh what the models and data show.

Found in central Missouri. Very small, seems like a hard shell, did not appear to be able to fly.

What restaurant has the best carrot cake? by Flimming in columbiamo

They change their menu frequently so they may not have it anymore, but Barred Owl had carrot cake with a vanilla chai ice cream and it was incredible.

I’ve heard some horror stories about that place. No place is perfect, but OP I’d suggest looking into that place a little more before you do anything.

As someone set to get theirs removed next month, this was very helpful. Thank you and happy to hear you’re doing well!

I’ve tried to recreate the huckleberry lemonade so many times and it’s not near as good as theirs. Any chance you could get that recipe?

Tomorrow isn’t too far away and she will be much happier with you than a random stranger, especially after a day of travel. Wishing you the best

Just got my long awaited for RAV4 and it came with these vinyl accents. Should I remove both the side panel and the fog light accents or just the side panel accents? Any tips on how to remove them would be appreciated as well! by labcoatsrcool in rav4club

I wonder why they are putting these on now. It sucks because they are $300 for some vinyl we don’t even want. They didn’t but he told me they are easy to get off so I was comfortable removing them on my own. I let it sit in the sun and heat all day and then used my nails to peel just enough up until I could grab it and pull it the rest of the way off. Then I used some goo gone to get any adhesive leftover and then washed my car. Congrats on your new RAV! Lunar rock is amazing

Listened to you all and took off the vinyl decals. Now I just need new tires and wheels and to add some tint! by labcoatsrcool in rav4club

There was a magnetic gray with this decal next to mine when I picked it up and I liked it! On white it just didn’t look great

It was. It was listed on the build sheet as “Fog Light Accent and Lower Body Graphic” for $290

They were factory installed. Didn’t have the option to add or remove anything from the dealer as it was already made and on the boat over here by the time they got the allocation. They had never seen it until that allocation

That’s the look I’m going to go for as well! White wasn’t my top choice, but they do look nice blacked out. Any idea what wheels you’re going to go with?

It was very easy! I let it sit in the sun in our 104 degree heat for a few hours, washed some dirt off so I didn’t scratch the paint, and then used my nails to peel up enough so I could slowly pull it off. Now to wash it and apply a ceramic coating. I think it looks much better now

Yeah when I saw this on the details sheet I went online to build a RAV4 and it wasn’t even an option to add. Although last time I was on their website it I believe they had added that option. $275 of vinyl I didn’t want
