No tornado, but some very bad thunder and lightning.
Hope your new apt./job/city are great.

We took the kittens and high-tailed it to the basement when the hail started here. Crankin - looks like it was worse where you were!
The news is reporting 4 deaths so far. For those of you in regular tornado areas, I realize this isn't a big deal, but this doesn't happen here. I have NEVER created an emergency pack and gone to the basement for shelter. Very scary.
Hope anyone out in Western MA is safe and sound.
Ridebikeme - what's the news up there? I heard touchdowns in Gorham and Jefferson. You ok?

We actually do get tornados in the DC metro area, though fortunately not as many or as severe as in other areas. I have no basement -- I'm in a second floor condo. My choices are: (a) the walk-in closet in my bedroom or (2) leave my condo, go into the main hallway, all the way downstairs to the basement level. There is a door down there that leads into my neighbors' basement. So I could either knock and hope they hear me and let me in, or just crouch under the stairs.
