That big storm was supposed to pass through here, but it ended up passing through an hour north of here and leaving us entirely alone. There was a bad tornado last night not that far away. What was projected to be severe thunderstorms for this county turned out to be a little wind and some light rain that came only after the severe storm watch was lifted.

Two weeks ago we were dealing with floods yet again. They were predicting it could be the second highest flood level on record but when it was all over it was only the tenth. We're just glad to not have a repeat of 2008! (Five years ago today!) So twice in two weeks this town dodged the bullet.
