Oh, oh!
Tornado Warning just issued for my location.

Looks like it all has moved to your East now. Still looks like some nasty storms in that line.

Was just to my Northeast...only .07" rainfall in twenty minutes.
Not an "event" for me...but I did go outdoors to look!

Did you see anything good?

Unfortunately, nothing significant to report. I did go outdoors to observe.
Lots of lightning. Low winds (8mph max!...

) at my location.
Disappointing for me, but glad it wasn't severe for those experiencing the Event.

Not to be mean, but if they put out a tornado warning for your area, what were you doing on a message board and not taking cover? LOL

Not taken as mean.

I'm a SKYWARN Spotter and went outdoors to observe and report.
It's my obligation.

I had a wireless laptop with me.
I was safe.

Roger that one!
As the advice goes: "Always be ready by knowing the location of the nearest ditch!"
(Flying debris = ouch!)
