My anxiety levels have been through the roof for the past couple hours. I nearly just died when I heard the dog snoring and was convinced that it was the ominous sound of the train coming that everyone tells me to fear. Earlier, one of the friends that I was chatting with said that she could tell that I was from Florida.
Are tornado warnings no biggie to everyone else?! All I see is this red curtain of doom approaching our two-story, no-basement townhouse. I've downloaded three different Doppler apps to ensure that I don't miss a thing. The thunder is approaching and making me even more nervous. Remind me that unless we're loving in Florida, to never get a house without a basement again.
Since I sleep so soundly and I'm afraid of not hearing the sirens, I probably won't be falling asleep for a little while.
Hope everyone else is having a better evening!
I swear, they aren't that bad! I've never been through a hurricane, but we get typhoons here. I guess it's the same as a hurricane. The Japanese are smart though and everything is built out of concrete. We've gone through 3 typhoon seasons so far (with at least 6 or 7 typhoons) and all has been fine every time.
ReplyDeleteScary! I don't think I've ever been through something like this... I've done typhoons before. I hope everything will be okay though!
ReplyDeleteStay safe! Tornado season is never a fun one, but you get used to it. Growing up, and even now, if a warning is issued people will look outside before taking shelter. Odd I know, but it is what we crazy Missourians do.
ReplyDeleteSeriously though, I heard the weather is pretty bad up there. I hope you guys are safe. I never had a basement growing up and it sucked taking shelter in a closet.
if you get a weather radio it can go off for warnings and you probably wouldn't sleep through it since it's very loud!
ReplyDeleteI grew up in Texas, where we get tornadoes, but don't have basements (it would literally require dynamite in order to have a basement). They still freak me out! We live in Mississippi now, where we get tornadoes CONSTANTLY. I have our emergency kit in the bathroom that we hide in during a warning, so I don't have to worry about finding it every time. I just have to grab the kid and the dogs and the mattress!
ReplyDeleteStay Safe ... that is all!!

It was definitely a stressful few days! My Mom lives in Arkansas and I worried about her every second that storm lasted. Thankfully it was just a thunderstorm and all is well again. :)
