Tornadoes....here?!
Someone on base took this video of the tornado that briefly touched down on base. (He uses some bad language so you can mute it if you'd like.) Even though sirens were going off, I wasn't freaked out because I didn't expect it to be all that serious. I'm from tornado alley after all! (Guess next time I hear sirens going off on base, I should be a little more concerned!) Fortunately no one was hurt and the neighborhood I live in had no damage that I'm aware of! Thank God! My husband and I were at the church on base at the time so I didn't know what I'd find when I got home...I was hoping my dog was ok! Driving home, we saw a lot of tree damage and a few outdoor kids toys and a trashcan strewn around. The power was out for about 6 hrs. last night. They restored it pretty quickly considering all the branches that were down and probably resting on power lines. I'm glad it got restored when it did because it was getting pretty hot in our house...and it was decently warm outside too. I know I really have nothing to complain about considering the heavy losses down south. I feel so badly for them. My thoughts and prayers are with them! I'm from Kansas so I expect to see tornadoes there, but here and down south?!? I had no idea!
