May 11, 2008 Our first tornado alert!! We were getting home from church and heard the sirens going off! So we came into the apartment and instead of taking cover like they were telling us over the news station, we went out on the patio and took pictures!! It was quite exciting for a few minutes! It passed over us and all we got was a lot of rain! But we experienced our first tornado. If the air had been warmer we might have really had some action. Maybe later in the summer it will happen!
