I have to say, it’s not too often you are simultaneously under

a Tornado Watch,

a Hard Freeze Watch,

and a Wind Advisory.

The lightning out the window is cool though.

 I hope dinner finishes cooking before the power goes out…

Oops. Sirens going off.

[Update: no tornado – I think around here they set the alarms off for severe thunderstorm warnings too. Not a wise practice. (People will start ignoring sirens.) We did get a tremendous amount of lightning, rain and wind. It is now COLD outside. And, supper did finish cooking because the power stayed on. (c; ]
