What I like just as much as the vomit alarm

That would be the severe-weather-alert-as-alarm. I'm so glad that PMB slept all night without waking up (probably  because I never bothered putting PMB in his own bed last night, so he was just where he wanted to be). Unfortunately, the weather radio siren went off at 5 am for a severe thunderstorm warning, and I never got back to sleep after that. No tornadoes, but there was a point at around 7 am where the sky went from dawning gray to pitch black in like, 15 seconds. I'm so glad we have a garage! It's narrow and when the weather is good I don't usually pull into it, but when the weather forecast says "wind gusts up to 80 mph and large hail," it's nice to be able to have a place to store the car where we don't ever have to really go outside.

Hopefully all of this weather stuff is gone by the time I have to pick DH up from the airport tonight. At least all the other errands are done!

ANOTHER tornado warning

It goes by county, and it looks like this one is skating south of us, but there's another patch of bruised-looking purple on the radar coming toward us after this bit. I just hope that gap in the middle is long enough to get all my kids from all their different schools. Me no like tornadoes. :(

ETA: HOW can the weather report simultaneously report that we're having "light thunderstorms" and yet declare us under a tornado warning??
