it's been way hot and even more humid the last couple days, it stormed a bit last night, but it's going off right now and we have tornado warnings for the next 40 minutes. It's still hot outside or I'd go sit and watch from the front porch.

We just got back from visiting my family back in North Dakota. We slept in a 15' trailer. First night stormed like crazy. Hail, wind, lightening. Went on for hours. The lightening flashes were almost solid. The next night we had rain, wind, lightening and tornado warnings.

Funny thing was that my family failed to tell us about the warnings until the next morning. I love my family. I guess that's why I only visit every other year.

Ah, come on Dave. You have to admit there's a certain thrill about looking to the west, and seeing a massive wall of black clouds, with a green tint heading for you! (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/hide.gif)


....what's that you say? Tornados sound like a freight train? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/unsure.gif) Well, I've got tracks within 1/4 mile on both sides of my house........luckly tornodo's don't have horns or I'd really be screwed!

So when are the hats gonna be ready? (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif)

Just kidding!

I had lots of storms on my way across this week. Luckily none of them were dangerous except maybe the sand storm in AZ. I hope your home doesn't get knocked off of its wheels (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) If it ain't on wheels then you have nothing to fear unless you have pink flamingos in your yard. They are like tornado magnets (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/ohmy.gif)
