I grab Shawn and our dogs and head to the closet after Becky the savior yells to me what to do. The closet is between my room and Shawn's room. Becky goes in by my handicapped mom and helps her take cover and Wendy goes in her room. We are still listening to the tv while huddled down when the tv's go static. Me watching the movie twister remembers static on a tv means twister. Theres me and Shawn holding onto each other saying the lords prayer over and over again it was scary scary stuff. The noise outside sounded like just solid thunder. 10 min's later we get the all clear from the tv going on normal again and the warning saying further east of us. We are all ok and went outside to see the damage if any... Continued next post
