Will it ever end?

Yesterday afternoon it started. The emergency weather radio going off, that is. It kept going of until about 11 pm when we finally got an all clear for the area. Severe thunderstorm warnings, Tornado watch, tornado warning.....strong wind advisorys.....it just went on and on.

And, it just started again. We heard the tornado warning horns going off and turned on the weather radio. Severe thunderstorm and wind warnings again. Looking at the radar it is still a ways off. But it look like a small front this time.
Yes Iknow most of you have been thru the same thing. But it is a little different when your home is not anchored down and there is no basement to go hide in. The trailer rocks and rolls in strong winds and the severe rain sounds like rocks when it hits the roof vents and skylight.
We keep our bail out box close. A small portable strong box with important papers, pass ports and some cash. If it gets too bad we will take it, the dogs and get in the truck.
Have a wonderful day, and lets hope all of this bad weather goes away soon
love to ya
Jim and Linda
