Watch out for those winged monkeys

This is wierd: people in Australia know more about the weather in Indiana than me! This afternoon I got 3 different people emailing me to ask about the tornado and whether I'm safe - that was the first I heard about a tornado!

That is to say, I am perfectly safe and no-one needs to worry about me getting sucked into the sky à la Wizard of Oz.

Reading up on it now, it seems people were right to worry; it was in southern Indiana (and northern Kentucky) but it wasn't actually close enough to affect me. Apparently 23 dead and more than 200 injured! (Those of you who remember the movie Twister might be interested to know it was an F3, medium.)

It's a strange feeling, isn't it. It's like what happened to me in London. People at home were worrying about whether I'd been caught up in the bombings, and I was wandering around the British Museum in blissful ignorance.

Glad you're ok, though! :-)
