A wall of storms came through the area last night bringing with them tornado after tornado. Nothing like spending 4 hours in a wet cold storm shelter filled with worried people and yappy dogs.
Even better is when you get to wake up at 2:30 in the morning and go back down there for another hour. After that I called my grandparents and woke them up cause the weather report said our storms were heading for them. We chatted for a bit (hadn't talked with her in quite a while) and finally about four am I got to go back to bed.
Needless to say I'm a zombie today. But in the end I'm safe, the puppy's safe, everyone in my family (we were all texting each other like mad) is safe and my house didn't pull a wizard of oz.
Can't say the same for the rents brand new vehicles, both of which are now sporting tree hats and power line bracelets.
