Thank you!

Thankfully, I have a basement.


Usually you'll find me out taking pictures of storms, unless it's too close to home. And, this might be too close to home lol.

No basements here. After the outbreak a couple of weeks ago my wife is paranoid. Our best chance for bad storms is overnight, so my wife just cleaned out the pantry.

Everyone ok?

'Twas a rocky night here. Last storm alert went off around 4:30 this morning. Didn't sleep at all. I'm too old for staying up all night lol.

We lost some of our wheat due to wind damage. Sigh. But, such is life. Could have been worse.

Glad to hear you're OK. It must have been an awful night. Hope it's more "peaceful" tonight. Best of luck.

It is true, correct, that the recent spate of Tornadoes in the past couple of years are bigger, far more menacing and more likely to touch urban areas?

Why is that?

Global warming due to hot air coming out of Wahington DC.

There more urban areas than there used to be.
But size and frequency, who says they are bigger and more often?

Tornadoes need cold fronts to form - that is on YOU guys up there!
STOP sending them down here!!!!! :D

Well, I will say one thing. The Temps are climbing in the Great White North. Pretty soon it'll be White SAND and we'll be on par with Key West. We just had an all time record Winter & March for high temps.

Winter-Peg, which is so freaking cold, you need to plug your car in nightly during the Winter, and a set of brass ones ( -30-40ish many days):ThmbDown: ,had record highs itself!

I think Sarah just saw that cold floating in from Petropavlosk from her front porch! ;)

And....in europe they had one of their coldest winters ever. Can't convince them of "global warming". I work with a lot of Euro's, they laugh at the talk of such a thing
