Well, yesterday was certainly interesting. It was humid and gross outside for most of the day, with a spot of clouds lazing across the sky. Then, around 7 pm or so..it started POURING. There was no warning drizzle or pitter patter of raindrops to start us off with. Nope. It was like God took a bucket of water and just splashed it on us and it didn't STOP. It was thundering and there was a lot of lightning outside (which was flashing almost a PINKISH color by the way...it was cool) Anywho, as we watched the news, it said that a funnel(of a tornado) had been spotted RIGHT outside my city.
In an effort to be safe rather than sorry, my parents rallied me, my brother, and my cat into our tiny little bathroom. And there we waited with our flashlights, storm radio, and my yowling feline.
Then the power went out. Yaaay!
To make it short, the storm finally died down and so me and my family went out to survey the damage. Luckily it wasn't TOO bad..though we DO have a hole in our roof now and our neighbor's branch from their tree nearly crashed into our roof. So, after that, all we could do was sit around and wait to see when the power would get on and listen to the radio for anymore information. It took THREE hours for the power to come back.
Then an hour later it died again : [ I went to bed around 1, and it was still out, so I dunno when it finally turned back on.
Seems we're still in for some more gross weather...But hopefully the power won't go out again...otherwise I'll have to draw by candlelight...Won't that be interesting?
Speaking of drawing--I'm finally putting up some stuff. It's not a lot. but check it out, if you please : )
