Yesterday seemed fine.. the posted time for thunderstorms had past...Had dinner at Moochoos with our daughter , watched a little tv and went to bed as usual....
I was sleeping when Bob woke me to say the sirens had gone off. This was about 2 am. Got things together and made our way down to the basement. Bob found chairs... turned on the cell phones to watch radar pictures and there had been a possible tornado in KC... Sirens still wailing. Our younger daughter on the other side of Blue Springs had also received text messages.
Sirens off .. tornado warning cancelled. Back to bed...
The this morning I read on the BS Facebook group the southern BS ... no warning. Also Oak Grove ( other daughter) didn't either.
What a night... but the day was fine! We did spend the day listening to the roofers taking off an old shake roof and putting on a new one!
Hey Bettina, I hope your whole family is safe. It must be truly terrifying to receive a tornado warning in the middle of the night and have to run for safety just in case it hits close by. Where we live in Greece, we don't experience anything like that, but I can completely understand how difficult and scary it must be. I wish you and your loved ones a peaceful sleep from now on.
ReplyDeleteHi Mary and Chris... I remember when we lived in Rochester ( Roxborough , 19 th ward) we had a line squall come down the street...around 1975? All the trees were damaged.. no electricity... luckily I had grabbed the kids and brought them into the house.
DeleteI hope you never have to go through something like that again.
DeleteMusings: OMG! Wow! That’s really scary.
