We're fine. We got our neighbors and went to the math building. They were smart enough to bring snacks and A. had supplies in his office so we had a mini tornado-party with other people there.

CSU sent out a campus wide alert on peoples cell phones 45 min after the tornado watch was issued for the area~it kept getting extended so we were there for a while.

Everyone here is fine, no real damage. The communities around us are starting to clean up today. With the death they will probably get a federal disaster declaration, so there will be some federal funds for clean up and recovery.

Yikes! Sounds like Kansas! Glad the tornados skipped over you guys.

Thanks -- I was not mentally prepared for tornadoes here!

The extreme whether certainly seems to be trying to send us a message.
