IF their mom gets the ALERT in time on her phone she can call the bus garage and tell them. IF she doesn't make it in time, I will have to go get them. The School is 4 miles from me in the other direction.
NOPE! Wish I did. It's the HUNKER DOWN MODE around here. The last tornado that came through here was about 6 pm one night. George was watching TV and I was emptying the dishwasher. Suddenly the electric went out. The next morning, George worked days then, he was going to work and was late. He called me as I worked 4PM to 4 AM and he told me that 3 miles down the road a tornado came across, wiped out the church, a house my kids wanted me to buy, an apartment building that my niece and her new husband lived upstairs in and wiped out the entire top floor. And several other things. Anyway, my niece had just gotten married about 2 weeks before. Their apartment (yes in the country) was an addition made of wood while the bottom apartments were cinder block. Her husband pushed her out the upstairs door and downstairs to the neighbor beneath them. They got inside just in time as a large piece of wood went straight through her car windshield at an angle and came out the drivers door window. All that was left of the upstairs apartments was a middle wall that held the kitchen cabinets to both apartments. George and I didn't hear a thing that night.
Thank you so much. I get fearful enough by myself when I watch my windmill spin out of control, but when you got little ones to worry about, it's a whole new ball game.

I'll be worried about you for the rest of today and tomorrow... You have a storm cellar right???
