My mom just called. They are ok. Boots the cat is in the house and napping in his fav spot. They have supplies in the basement and are prepared in case there is another. They are still under a tornado watch. Mom said "it rained like H*LL!" but nothing else. Thank goodness.

So glad to hear your parents and Boots are all okay!

Keep safe, all!

Gayle texted me to tell me that Cochrane was under a tornado watch...and the area actually got upgraded to a warning. I was working north of town (Sundre is further north), and this black sea of cloud was bearing down on us. I drove south, then west to pick up a paycheck...then north for a bit...anyway, got home safely with a few groceries.

I saw the beginning of a funnel cloud, but not a full one, yet.

yow.

Glad your folks are okay, Gayle.:love:

Glad you're ok too Candace. My goodness this weather this year has really been something else.

Glad everyone was safe! Such a relief. :)
