Okay, that was freaky...
We're getting the rainbands from Katrina, of course, and with that comes toranado warnings and such.
About five minutes ago, I was sleeping on the living room floor, and all of a sudden I hear "BEEPITY BEEP" and I look up to the TV and see it go all black and red with TORANADO WARNING, and about the same time, I hear the tornado sirens going off. Then I hear the guy mention /our/ highway exit (the exit we live about 1/2 mile from). Mark's napping in the bedroom, the cats are sitting /by/ the window. So I grab 'em all and we go in the hallway down to the outside and wait.
It went away without getting too close, apparently, but that was a little creepy. I've never heard tornado sirens before.
