Last night it got pretty scary here with the wind blowing and lightning. Then there was a Tornado Warning and they spotted a tornado not far from my area. So It got pretty scary. Luckyly nothing much happened by me except for my outdoor furniture getting blown all over the place. Yuk!!!

That would be too scarey. I was watching the news just a while ago and saw some tornado damage in the states but didnt really hear where it was. Do you get them often? They are rare here but do happen. Since I have no basement to hide in, I hope I never see one!!

We do get them once in awhile mostly around this time of the year. I never saw one in person yet and I dont want to.

well that is wonderful that you were spared by tornado, I don't live in a tornado zone but I can imagine how scary this could be.

I am pleased to hear that you are OK and I can appreciate how scary it would be. We don't get many here in the UK, and the ones we get are fairly light compared to yours, but back in 1990 we had a tornado that picked on our house. It ripped half the roof away and I had never seen anything like it in the UK before. Luckily we were insured and had a new roof fitted, but we had to wait and had large heavy plastic sheets tied over the roof. - Derek

It rained pretty good here the other day, but there was nothing major. I think it is supposed to rain tomorrow too. I am glad that nothing major happened where you live.

well, your topic makes me thinking about the movie "twister", and i think it will be shocking and amazing when encountering with the tornado. i should say that i've never ever had the experience and want to have a glance at it, although may i'm afraid to do so.
