In the heart of tornado season in Alabama is it not uncommon for three, four, five, maybe six or seven of the bast$%#@ to roar through in a span of a couple hours.
I was sent into the heart of the tornado belt one night on an assignment and we had four come over within 20-minutes with two touch downs. I was inside a tiny volunteer fire department when one hit us.
I hate those things! We get them every year, and they can come at any time of the year, spring, winter, fall, summer... they don't care. And I just happen to live in a geographically perfect "alley" for them to roar through. I know, I need to move!

And, one of the strongest ever recorded here - a high F5 - killed 11-people I knew in my neighborhood. Again, I hate those Bast#$%#!!!

Happy to know you're ok!
