Get up... get up

Bob woke me up early this morning( 6am) to the wail of tornado sirens!! We both grabbed phones ,glasses, slippers and bathrobes and headed downstairs to the basement.... sirens going off continuously.  It was also raining heavily and the wind blowing ( according to the weatherperson after it was all over) at 80 miles per hour.
I looked out a window by the front door and could not see across the street.
We hunkered down in the basement until the sirens stopped and the phone signaled an all clear. On the way back to bed we checked the local television station's radar map... lots of red and warnings all over.
 Finally went back to bed and dozed for awhile.... not a great way to start the day

No damage in our yard other than tipped over plants. Two neighbors had their wooden fences blown down and one had a tree split and half down.   No electricity down here but lots of outages all over Kansas City.
