Tornado warning


Today I woke up and was looking around my room searching for something quiet to do so my mom wouldn't think I was awake and want to start school.  Not that school is bad, but I had just got the new Adventures in Odyssey album on my ipod and I wanted to finish it. Soooooo... I'm chilling in my room laying in my bed playing with some magnets....wait, I know that sounds weird, but these magnets are very cool. (http://www.getbuckyballs.com/)  It's like 216 very small magnets, and they are extremely powerful....alright... back to the story. I'm sitting in my bed and I hear this really loud blowing noise. I get out of bed (quietly) and look out my window......... The wind was crazy.  It was blowing really hard and stuff was flying everywhere. Cars and trucks were flying past my window, and I think I saw an old lady! Okay, I didn't see all that, but the wind was really intense! I go back to my bed  and keep listening to my story. A little while later my mom yells at us to get downstairs because there's a tornado watch, and well, that's where you'll find me right now.

  4. Mar-mar - I met a couple, back in January, who was in bed, their young son was sleeping in the basement, and their daughter was sleeping in her room when a tornado unexpectedly hit. When it was over, their house was gone, they were on the front lawn (her and her husband were both seriously injured), and their daughter was trapped under a chest (she ended up with only a scratch.) Their young son (about your age) comes running upstairs from the basement to see what was going on and to let his mom know that the basement window broke, and discovers that aside from the basement the house was gone. He ended up helping his mom, dad, and sister until medical help arrived. Thought you would like hearing this story - and it really is true.
