Whew! It was a bit of a rough ride here, this evening, and the tornado sirens sent us to the basement twice, but, pending further survey in the morning, it looks like the worst here was a tree branch that landed on the road beside our place. I went out and dragged it off into the yard once the lightning was mostly past. So far, the reports across the area are not nearly as bad as the storms a couple weeks ago.

Glad you’re safe and sound, with no major damage. Cellars are wonderful things to have, and I don’t see why more homes here in OK don’t have them. The ones that do tend to be older homes. Most newer homes either have in-ground shelters dug a short distance from the house, or interior Safe Rooms inside the home.
