Well, actually, there are more thunderstorms than tornadoes and we get some hellacious downpours, but we do get hit with tornadoes too this time of year. The warnings here are scarier than other places I've lived. Basements don't seem to be real prevalent around here, presumably because of flooding potential so when you hear one is coming you basically just wait and pray....or go to Walmart.

So, the grandkids were over while their parents enjoyed a night out to dinner and movies. We had the tv and radio off and were just enjoying them.

Just now my daughter rushes home to pick them up. They had heard on the radio that we are under a tornado warning. Just north of us I-55 has been virtually been shut down with traffic because of the horizental rain. Several funnel clouds have been reported by weather spotters.

I guess we hang on for the ride again. Last year was a disaster to a town four miles from us.
