Tornado Warning/Electricity Flickering

Tweet

Some people think tornadoes aren’t a problem this time of year in Tornado Alley, but of course, they can develop any time of year. I think it was two years ago we had a really bad one in December here in Oklahoma. So, the electricity is flickering, the tornado sirens have gone off twice, and I’ve got a cowering dog in my lap. It’s been a whole night of this, and the rest of the night will continue in this vein according to the meteorologist talking before my electricity went off again. Some tornadoes have already touched down. The damage will be unknown until daylight. My dad has his phone off (he started turning it off at night when my awful terrible uncle used to call him asking for pizza money at 1am (my late mom’s brother), but he never pays attention to the sirens or warnings anyway. My stepmom does (they have a shelter), but she’s likely sleeping through it. I can’t drive over there. It’s too dangerous. Tornado reasons, and flood reasons. People are having to be rescued. I’ve got medicine together, some bottles of water, that iffy vegan jerky, and blankets if I need to take cover in the bathtub. So if you happen to be reading this, please say a prayer. I would appreciate it, and so would my fellow Oklahomans.
