Tornadoes are scary, I hope you all stay safe and keep us posted! Thinking of you.

It looks surprisingly nice outside here in Wichita right now. It's a little cloudy, but the sun in still shining in the blue sky. It's comfortable with a gentle breeze blowing.

Fearing that this is the calm before the storm.

I'm watching a live feed of a tornado chaser who is in South Central Kansas (Randy Denzer) the storm they are following looks scary! I am home getting prepared for tonight. I'm thinking we'll just sleep in the basement lol! I'm not one for taking chances. My hubby thinks I'm silly, but I'd rather be safe than sorry! Stay safe everyone!!! Fingers crossed this storm just "blows" over

So it's now here - but we don't have any warnings or alerts going on. But that can certainly change!

I know it is completely nice and sunny out there right now...

Libby I just saw on KAKE-TV's FB page that the Wichita State campus is closing at 4pm, maybe Jeff's meeting will be rescheduled after all?

I'm pretty nervous. They're saying things like "intense tornado outbreak" between 8 pm and 3 am. Not sure I'll be sleeping tonight.

We are watching the weather really close here. Hubby closed our karate school for the night hoping to keep people safe at home. We have packed a snack bag and a "go" bag just in case we are hit, we will have a change of clothes, ect. Needless to say.....my hubby is a planner and always is prepared for worse case senerio. I don't know if I want to blame military or his time as a police officer for that!

Everyone stay safe! Hopefully we are all being overly cautious and it blows over with no event.

I'm home alone and listening to thunder all around me. The dog is scared to death. I have my bag packed and am ready to head for shelter if necessary.

Right now they're showing a tornado approaching Great Bend. My kids are about 30 minutes from there, but my parents have a nice basement with few windows so I'm not as scared for them.

Me, sitting in the trailer park alone... I might be a little scared. A coworker asked me to come over, but I'd feel bad leaving the dog, and dh will be home in a couple hours. Ack. I hate this.
