A little excitement earlier this evening, about 7pm, when the Tornado sirens went off, but it didn’t amount to anything. No really bad weather here in the KC area that I am aware of. Thank Goodness:-)

Waiting to see what kind of weather roles in after midnight. Hopefuly just same rain, nothing to exciting. Gotta call it a night soon as I have 12 hours of fun and frivolity on tap for the next three days.

Regards
