[Monday: 3.5 miles; today: 3.5 miles]
After almost no rain since the first half of September, this week we caught up with ourselves a bit.
We had two days of evening storms complete with tornado warnings and some quality time spent sitting in our shelter room: the bedroom closet.
I was able to listen to our relay of the tornado warning announcements and do a bit of adjusting to our EAS device to try to make the warning sound better. I also started a bit of a fuss about how bad the warnings were sounding as then came down to me through the EAS distribution system. There may be some further work in that area. I think the advice of the old-timers is to get your own weather radio and get the warnings straight from the nearest NWS radio station. So I have some work to do in that regard.
Otherwise, we didn’t suffer any problem from the weather. There was some damage about 2 miles away, southeast of us, some trees and fence blown over.
Today I ran Watson Road and took this picture. One limb blown down but no serious damage that I could see.
