We used to just ignore the sirens when we heard them around here because they never amounted to anything but that's changed. Nowadays when the sirens go off they mean business and we've had serious damage within a few miles from us every year for the last few years. Now we actually heed the warnings, it's pretty scary.

PrinAnne....I saw you mention you live in KC. I live down Hwy 70 from you in St. Louis. I'm closer to Elizabeth though -- we even share the same weather usually (except for those tornados yesterday). I'll be cheering for your football team this year since we don't have one of our own anymore. Go Chiefs! Small world. Yep. There were 3 in IL yesterday. It didn't stay on the ground long and was just in a field thankfully. It was actually less than a 1/4 from the house my nephew closes on in two weeks. 😁 A coworker lost her house 3 years ago to a tornado. They always seem to go just to the north and south of where we live thankfully. I'm just glad my kids didn't go to church last night and were home when it all happened.
