That was the only way we knew we were under a tornado warning a year or so ago. That one passed just to the north of us.

Mom's on the phone now - they're ok, thank goodness. Next to check on my dad and step mom. They're about 45 min north of us and some pretty heavy stuff went through there, too. I think I'd rather have snow than this crap!!

Yikes!!! The one over St. Louis looks like it's very near to where we work. The nasty cell directly across from Elsberry, MO is right over my dad.
