Bring on the Storms!

Here it comes!  Finally, after all of the false alarms.  We've got severe weather here!  Are ya ready Russ?  Outside my window, there is horizontal rain, greenish color, and a wonderful booming sound.  All local stations are non-stop weather reporting.  Tornado Warnings, Severe Weather Warnings, Tornado Watches.  WooooHooooo!  Come on angry spring, show us what you've got! 

I'm not totally insane.  If there is a tornado warning for my town, I will take my children to the basement.  There are sirens and announcement speakers right across the street, so I'll know immediately.  Until then, I'll be watching with a big, stupid grin on my face.

The only buzz-kill to this situation will be if Survivor is preempted by this stuff.  That'll make me sad.  I've got someone in Chicago that tapes it, though, so I can always beg a copy!

Oh yeah, this one took me by surprise; I just got the horses put up about 15 minutes ago.  WOW!!!   It's raining sideways.  We need this rain, so I'll just thank the good Lord.

I was ready for some severe lightning and tornado sirens....what I got was a 50 minute commute home in horrible traffic because of the heavy rain.  Here in O.P. it's all quiet and boring.  The month of May will hopefully be better.   Russ
