WOW..... This time it's Tornadoes !!!:eek:
Indianapolis and all the surrounding towns are under
Tornado watchs and warnings for 1 1/2 hours now. Reports
we are getting is of trees down, street lights out,cars blown
and lifted into yards, roofs blown off houses. All of the offices
were evacuated and we were instructed to gather in the
center of the building, away from any windows. The heaviest
storms seem to have passed through Indy and are heading
towards the Muncie area. I sure hope I have a house in one
piece when I get home. Electrical power would be nice also.
Hope the pup & kitties aren't too scared. Liz.
Wow, that must be scary, anybody know what kind of natural disasters occur in Alaska? I mean besides snowstorms, duh. Cause that is my favorite state and I am going there when I grow up. :cool:
In my opinion, it would be cool to get tornados and hurricanes and stuff. It would be fun!! I have no idea why, but I looove action and escaping from things and stuff. Anyway, hope you're okay, and the pets too. By the way, since you live in Indiana, do you know anybody named Andrew Scheef? He was my old orchestra teacher and then he moved to Indianapolis (like I know how to spell that). :)
Gosh Liz, I hope all is well at your home and that everythings fine. Please keep us posted.
FloppsyLadySally if you decide not to become a vet, you may want a career with the weather channel. I think you would make a good hurricane hunter or tornado chaser. I dislike tornados with a passion myself but lots of people are intrigued by them and enjoy filming them. (This is not meant to be rude in anyway. You just seem to have the spirit for adventure that storm filmers seem to have too.):)
Liz, I also hope all is ok for you. I have relatives in Greenwood.
Sammi,
Not to alarm you to much, but Greenwood was hit pretty
hard by these storms.Don't know of any loss of life or
anything, but some major businesses were hard hit.A lot
of property damage .
Gosh! Lots of weather happening right now! I hope everyone is safe and sound. Especially those furries that have no idea what's going on.
Aren't eq's fun?:eek: I've lived in Southern CA my whole life and have experienced quite a few...but you never get used to them. They are scary. Especially when my hubby hides with the cats! :rolleyes:
Glad you are OK. I was surprised to see where you lived, I had no idea you had active faults over there...and I just took a Geology class...hmm. ;)
NoahsMommy,
I just heard The storms made the evening news on ABC.
Yes the furbabies were all o.k. & house was still standing
when I got home. Smokey Joe & the kitties were acting
normal. The tornadoes touched down at the southern edge
of Indy, also struck towns south & neighborhoods on the
east side of Indy. I just looked out my window as I logged
on just now and I saw the most beautiful rainbow I've seen
in years. Absolutely gorgeous !!!! I like to think it was Buddy's
way of saying "It's o. k. now Mom." I've alway's been uneasy
in violent t-storms, or tornado weather watches, but He was
always calm as a cucumber. Bless his heart. Liz.
Oh, such a sweet, comforting thought. {{{Liz}}}Quote:

I always thank God when I see a rainbow...they come at such wonderful times. :)
Glad everyone is OK. :)
We really just DID have an earthquake.. 16 miles below the surface so it's shallow and we can expect aftershocks. Apprently some people have some cracked plaster and broken dishes but no injuries reported. It was a 4.0 magnitute. It happened at 5:59pm my time and it's 6:28pm right now. I was sitting at my desk and I saw Bassett come slinking into my room, and I heard what I thought was a door slamming and the floor kinda vibrated, and then it sounded like LOTS of doors slamming and it really started to shake. Bassett went tearing under the bed, Tilly jumped up and eventually went under the bed, and I grabbed the kitten and got under the desk.
I'm just so scared right now. I've never been in an earthquake before and I realised that I have no way of protecting my cats :(
Nomilynn,
You did the right thing to get under your desk. I know its really scary and especially when you worry about where your animals are...they have no idea what's happening.
I'm sorry you are scared....I'll be thinking about you.
Take care,
Kelly :)
Yepperz! You had a :eek: quake...Quote:

Not much info in on it yet - but here's a page to check on:

Hang Onto the FurKids!!
Thanks for the replys. I'm slowly calming down as more time passes, and Bassett just came and sat with me for a while :)
