Storms and Tornadoes

We here in Conway, Arkansas were very fortunate tonight.  Tornadoes went around us while our sirens sounded for approximately 3 hours.  Unfortunately, our neighbors 10 miles east in Vilonia weren't so lucky.  Indications are they they took the full brunt of an EF5 tornado (ripped pavement up).  Only 2 fatalities so far in the state; if this doesn't grow, it'll be a very good thing.

  1. Glad you made it through the storms safely. We were also lucky as one touched down just 10 miles north of us.

  2. Heather, it's just been a crazy week. The next day, a funnel cloud went right over my house. And then of course the devastation in Alabama yesterday. Yikes!!

    I did laugh at myself on Monday though because I through my pillows and blankets into the bathroom, just in case. But then also thought, I need to protect my digital camera and laptop too. I couldn't lose my family info!! HA!
