This is a by the minute post, to collect everything from about when this post started to about 4:04

So far, so good.

In basement with food, water, flashlights, animals, and wifi.

Leslie keeps periodicly calling me, instead of working on our sociology paper.

I do not like the words, "radar detected tornado."

Poor Boonvile, geting smacked with two severe storms this month. Still not as bad as being slamed with two hurricanes.

Oh, fuck. The storm is heading straight towards Jasper. But it's still 60 some miles from us.

Where's the fucking radio...

Tornado touchdown? *starts getting ulcers*

In Davies County. Not sure what state that's in. Massive damage.

Hail in Posyville. That's a terrible name. Oh, forgot Poverty. That's the worse name for a town ever.

For once, the cats' fasination with the inner basment is paying off.

Do you like screwing with my mind, Mr. Weatherman? Coma shaped storms? *makes mental note to make voodoo doll*

Okay, I found the rado. Except the dynamo option doesn't work, so it's running on batteries. Or it would, if it wasn't off.

And there is another band?

I swear, if I halucinate the garage door opening one more time, I'm going to scream. *screams*

But the good news is that the cell that was barrling towards us isn't as bad as I thought, since they've gave up tracking it and has switched to a diffrent cell. Both of them have spawned toradic activity though. Or it could be because we're in the extreme north of thier coverage area. As in, thier banner covers the county.

Davies county is in Kentucky.

Uh, and after this thrunderstoms, there's ice. Did I mention how Indiana weather is a schizophrenic bitch?

One more hour. I can do that.

Dad just called from Thailand, he's just getting on the plane and will be home tomorrow for me, today for him. While I was upstairs I took some pictures of the cloud bands on the film camera.

Look, thunder. I don't know what cell it's from, but I thing it's from the southern one, since the western one is still an hour or so away.

The tempature just dropped again. I don't know if that's a good or bad thing.

Great time to break you're radio's NOAH!

And I found my county again, it's due west of Vincennes. Which just went red.

Madisonville, KY has been slammed with a tornado.

I don't like the word "mesocyclone" either. It's rotating winds that can produce a tornado very quickly.

They just mentioned that they couldn't talk about the flooding right now.

Mr. Weatherman! Stop using that tornado graphic to point out things! Can't you just use an arrow? Or your hand or something, ANYTHING, but that?

Oh, we just got a tornado warning. The cell should be here around ten minutes. See you guys later.

It's all over now, and the tornado watch just brought some lighting. And Lesile calling again saying that the sirens were going off in Ireland. And I had to explain to my mother about the NOHA radios/sirens not working in some places. The same equipment didn't work last week when the F-3 tornado blew though Boonvile and surrounding areas.

So the last 24 hrs of tension is finally over for us in the veiwing area of Evansville. Huzzah!

I'm still moving to place that gets fewer tornados though.
