Our emergency shelter- the downstairs walk in closet.We moved the rabbit and guinea pigs downstairs, grabbed our dinner (which we were eating at the time) and headed to the basement, where we kept an eye on the weather station on Jeremy's TV.
Sarah was not happy at all about the storm.It looked pretty bad out. The weatherman even sent his staff to the station basement and said he'd stay on the air as long as was possible-very dramatic!
Our little portable wind up lamp came in handy when the power went out briefly.Luckily, nothing ever touched down and the storm moved on. But it was a very tense 15 minutes. We thought that we might actually have to camp out in our emergency shelter for part of it, but it never turned quite that bad.
The worst of it is past, but we're expecting thunderstorms all night long.

Every time the tornado siren goes off in Tulsa, I think to myself "it's time to move back to CO!!" I'm glad you survived you close call...at least for now. Who knows if we'll both be blown away tonight!
