D8 TORNADOS

[jotsalot]

Okay, so I'm at work and it's been pretty rainy all day and the rain gets harder so my co-workers and I assume it's going to start hailing soon. I get a text from my dad, who works at an ambulance company, telling me there are some tornado warnings out. Which is kind of scary in it's own but it happens at least twice ever summer, but I live in the

Thank you. I can just add it to a list of 'hey, guess what I saw??'s, hahaha

That sounds so scary. And the picture made it worse. Oh my gosh. I'm glad you're alright! I never get tornadoes, just earthquakes. We're overdue for a big one, says every freakin' scientist person out there. T___T But yes, I hope the tornadoes go away! And the rain! I'll try to send you some of this hot hot sun. D:

[jotsalot]

Yeah, my friend just got one out there on Long Beach a couple days ago. Scary Scary.

Where are you staying for AX? *random*

[akalillyn]

D: I WISH I WAS GOING TO AX. But I'm not. :[ You are? :O :O :O I so so so wanted to see Yun Kouga. I love her work. But Morning Musume...haha not so much. TAKE PICTURES. Are you cosplaying? :O

[jotsalot]

I totally figured you would be. Sad times, I'm sorry for assuming. I will take pictures. I'm going for the first two days and then splitting from my little group to go stay with my best friend out there.

I will be cosplaying but I don't think I'll be anything super special. I'll be Female!Reborn from KHR and then Bonney from One Piece.

XD

Oh man, I am glad everything turned out ok in the end! I can't imagine what a tornado is like, and I never want to be near one. We get them in some parts of Pennsylvania sometimes, but the area where I live has so many large mountains they usually can't touch down or stay down because the terrain changes too often.

Though I remember when I was, I think, about 15, there was this summer where we had warnings for them at least once a week and a few did apparently manage to touch down, though never anywhere near me, thankfully!

So is this where your idea about the tornado chasers and their abduction and subsequent loss of their child came from? hehe.

[jotsalot]

I think we get an occasional one because we have all the plains wind and then the crazy currents from the mountains all interacting. But you live near mountains! That's so exciting; we have soemthing in common. XDD

I think the scariest thing about tornadoes are the sirens. They sound like the ones in movies for bomb raids.

And haha, yes, you got me. My story was definitely inspired by my tornado day. :P

[jai]

I live near tons of mountains! Two of them are owned by my family...we were a farming family with a lot of land til my generation.

Ours ARE the air raid sirens, cause we don't get tornadoes except once in a blue moon really, so they aren't going to install anything else. And actually, since we don't get them, we don't have shelters other than bomb shelters, so most people have to go to those anyway if there's a real threat. It probably feels like a war movie...I know the air sirens are weird, but if I'm at home, I just go in the basement, I don't have to go to a shelter.

I still loved that story, lol!

[jotsalot]

Your family owns MOUNTAINS?? *slinks back to poverty*

That's so crazy. You know, the sirens are scary and maybe I'm a weirdo but sometimes those things give me wicked story ideas. My imagination goes off like, "Imagine this..." and "Imagine that..." haha.

It must be so pretty out there. As far as traveling east, I've only been to Dayton, Ohio. I guess I was in MN for a quick minutes...but really, I haven't traveled out east at all. I always thought it would be cold!

Oh gods, that is super scary! One of the reasons I'm glad to be in england is we never get tornados. But that must have been horrible, I'm glad to hear you and everyone important to you is safe though! Wouldn't you just hate to live in a place that got hit by tornados regularly though?

[jotsalot]

Oooh, you live in England? Adopt me! LOL

Tornadoes are super scary. I don't know what I'd do if I lived in tornado alley...All natural disasters are scary, lol!

[eliteassassin]

XD I wouldn't know though, I've never been in one. Apparently there was an earthquake last year or so, but I managed to dance through it XD Skillz~ 8D

[jotsalot]

LOL! An earthquake would be a cool experience, as long as nothing fell on me. ;P
