sirens blowing and blowing last night

 Bob was getting ready for bed ( up late last night playing XBox) when the tornado sirens started wailing! Woke me up and we headed downstairs to check things out on the TV and our cell phones.... sirens still wailing louder and louder.

A tornado had been sighted over the state line in Kansas and more possibilities were being watched!

Headed downstairs to our "safe" spot - the basement! Settled ourselves down on two folding chairs and waited for the sirens to stop!! In other words... the storm had passed.

The storm moved quickly with loads of thunder and lightning but not much rain.

When the sirens stopped wailing and things got quiet... it was back to bed for us. One daughter living east of us lost her electricity. The other daughter and family slept though it all !

One actual tornado - EF1 - in the area. Trees down.
