More Tornados

Today a tornado did come quite close to Bloomington. I'm not sure how far in miles but it was close enough for the sirens to sound! That was in the middle of a lecture so we all went down to the basement level of the building and stood in the hall for half an hour, waiting for it to pass.

It died down for a while but now that I'm home I can hear a lot of thunder (and very violent lightning) so there could be more tornados form. The storm warning remains in effect until 10 pm. When I asked the others in my class, they were a bit blasé about the whole thing. Most people here don't have storm cellars, they just recommended I hide in the bathroom!
