So we've been having some terrible weather here because of Tropical Storm Hermine, which pretty much just made its way through Texas in the last couple days. I swear it rained more here in the last 3 days than it has in the last 3 years in Southern California(I has rained more that 15 inches in some places!). We had a rather scary moment where there was a tornado in Dallas. There is a video of it on CNN's website.


It was pretty scary because we could see the storm on the radar, and the projected path of the tornado, and we could tell that it was headed right in our direction.


Thankfully, the tornado pulled back up into the storm clouds before it got to us, but it was a tense moment! We weren't close enough to see it ourselves(that ok, really, I'd rather see one heading away from us than towards us...), but we had some pretty severe rain and wind ourselves. It cleared up for a little while, but then started pouring again around 2:00 a.m.(pretty much exactly around 2:00 a.m. I was awake.)The storm has gone now, so we're enjoying some peace now, until tropical storm Igor comes around...
