Tornado touched down SoCal today
 

WTF is with the weather ?! 5 days ago it was over 90, sunny and clear; now it's 60, scattered thunderstorms, and tornado watches/warnings have been issued.

This is the End. My Friend.


Apox on Both Your Houses, Now!

I can't help but hear the music from the scene when Belloq opened the Ark...

The weather gods have been angered by all the celebratin'!

Once again the weather skips Bakersfield. Although I was woken up at 2am by a small crack of thunder. It has been quiet ever since.

And most of you have no basement. Yikes.

People in the Midwest watch the skies for a change of color. If it gets "hawky" - a yellowy sky - conditions are favorable for a tornado.

I'm sorry, but that's a clear violation of the rules.

In SoCal your worries are supposed to be drought and the ground opening up under your feet swallowing you into oblivion. Tornado's are clearly out of bounds. Someone better be ready to answer for this outrage.

I woke up at 5am after dreams of more tornadoes touching down. I hate bad dreams.

What's weird is yesterday morning I said to myself "It looks like tornado weather". Erica can vouch, when I say something about having an earthquake, we generally do. So I was a bit freaked out when one actually touched down.

For some reason, the book Night of the Twisters has always stuck with me. They talked about the sky turning grenish. I was watching the sky to change color yesterday.

No basements. On the 2nd floor of an apartment building which is also the middle floor. No inside walled areas either. Closest thing is the half of the living room not next to the sliding glass door and bathroom. Both bacs up to the stairwell hallway. I guess that would be a safe area, since I'm on the middle floor. Safer than the bedroom at least.

Scary stuff!

Every single state in the country (even Alaska and Hawaii) has experienced
tornadoes.

Nobody is safe!

Just wanted to do my part to ease nerves.
