I have lived all my life in this little corner of the world. Tornadoes are a part of life here. It's not a matter of if we will have tornadoes but where, when and how many. Because we have so many it is just normal spring weather. But the warning and predictions of tornadoes tomorrow from the weather people are going way above normal. I've seen over a dozen of them this afternoon and they all have an element of panic or urgency. Here is one of the messages....
Severe Weather Update: Tomorrow is likely going to be a HISTORIC tornado outbreak day. The data from this morning is just downright scary. EVERYONE in the state of OK needs to discuss with their family TODAY their plan of action in the event of the worst. Get your irreplaceable valuables together in a safe place, discuss plans of communication if those get cut off, get helmets for protection, clean out safe rooms and cellars, make sure everyone knows what to do in the event of a tornado. Folks in mobile homes, PLEASE for the love of God, plan TODAY where you would go and EVACUATE. The tornadoes expected tomorrow are likely to be killer, wide, and long track tornadoes.
The list of schools that are canceling classes tomorrow is growing.
To balance out the weather people warnings.....I love the way my life long friends use humor to deal with it. One of them posted this on FB....I decided to go ahead and do laundry today even though there is a threat of destruction tomorrow. Let’s just say if I did laundry & a tornado blows everything away tomorrow, I’m gonna be p*ssed on multiple levels! #IHateLaundry
I laughed when I read that and decided I'm not cleaning anything in the next 24 hours.
1. Know what you want.
2. Go after it relentlessly.
