we had yesterday... I quilted early in the morning and shut my machine down. Two minutes later the power went out. At 11:30 a tornado touched down to the west of us, in the town the my Sis in Law lives. So I tracked her down and she was okay...next up was finding my husband - he was in the town just to the west of the tornado. He was fine too. My Aunt in Law in Laramie was okay too - she had tress uprooted..but she called dh this morning and she is good... so All are accounted for.
About 4:15 I look out east of us and there are hugely dark clouds and a small funnel coming out of it. This I am somewhat used to - but the always go east and dissapate... however this one was moving north, and a little west - in my opinion. So we headed down to the basement and played there for a while. The boys were getting a bit concerned.
Then at 5pm it was sunny and the wind had died down and you couldn't tell it had been a stormy day. And the power came back on!
Now today it has been pretty but the wind is kicking up again - and the clouds are starting to darken, I hope its just thunderstorms and they will move out.
Last weekend we went fishing with some friends for a birthday party - the photo is my guys trying to be serious.... hmmm
Have a great day!
Saw it on TV and tried to think if I knew anyone in Colorado.

Glad you are all safe.
ReplyDeleteTornados are one of the scariest things because there is often no warning and they cause so much damage. Keep safe :)
