Well, it happened again... Strange, but true: Yet another hail storm!! While I watched the hail (the kids beside me but under the cover of the porch), I could hear sirens. I turned on the TV to find out that Anna was under a tornado warning. I corralled all 5 kids into the master bathroom and took the phone with me. We had been in the bathroom for about 5 minutes when I got the code red call that is supposed to tell us of UPCOMING severe weather. I stayed in the bathroom with most of the kids screaming and ready to get out- for about 30 minutes. Then, I came out to see if it had passed us by yet (I know, it's not the smartest thing, but the kids were making so much noise and it echoed in the bathroom). Sure enough, the storm had passed... And we were all still in one piece. Whew! These is a quote from WFAA TV news:
"A tornado warning has been issued for Collin County until 5:45pm. DopplerNet is indicating a developing tornado about 4 miles east of Prosper and just north of McKinney. It is moving northeast at around 30 mph. It should be near Weston and Melissa by 5:20, Anna by 5:30pm and Westminster and Blue Ridge by 5:40pm. In addition to dangerous rotation in this storm, we can expect hail to quarter size."
