I know there are a lot of fellow Ohioans who are members here, so I thought I'd check in and see how we all are after that rash of Tornados tonight.
As for me (Holmes Co.), I spent about 2 hours huddled with my fellow workers in the center of the building waiting for things to calm down after the town warning siren went off. The rain sounded like it was going to break through our skylights and the thunder made me jump a few times.
A few of us ventured outside the building a couple of times to try and see how things looked. Someone said they saw a funnel cloud in the distance, and one touched down in a nearby town, but they bypassed where I was.
The drive home from work was a bit nerve wracking as there was standing water in a lot of spots that caused a little hydroplaning. No downed trees or power lines though, so I felt fortunate.
Mostly it was just icky and a little scary, but not really dangerous. I'm hoping the rest of you in Ohio fared as well...

I've been reading about the tornadoes on CNN and it sounds horrible! glad to hear you're OK. that can't have been fun just having to sit there and wait for it to go past not really knowing whats gonna happen.
