I have put together a much improved emergency kit for our daughter's family and ourselves as a result. We drove around in the total darkness that night looking for stores that might be open and there were none. At least we could recharge our phones while driving the car.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15892804871759397018noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-8476574914778542222018-09-27T07:15:44.013-04:002018-09-27T07:15:44.013-04:00I never even thought of tornado victims traveling ...I never even thought of tornado victims traveling your way.<br />I know so many affected.<br />One young woman, Julie Lalonde, who speaks about woman as victims, and was stalked for 10 years, said she ate in an Ottawa restaurant and got food poisoning. She believes they should have thrown their food out after the power outage.

Horrible. I can't imagine what I would do in such a situation. Back in the late 1980s a tornado ripped the roof off the garage on the property where my son lives now. He didn't live there then.<br />We had heavy rain and strong winds here too... I was driving grandson to a birthday party, and he got soaked running from the car to the party place!Shammickitehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11969803866899076638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-34576432894548870392018-09-23T15:53:08.183-04:002018-09-23T15:53:08.183-04:00Fierce winds can do untold damage in the blink of ...Fierce winds can do untold damage in the blink of an eye. I don't actually live in an alley, but about 30 miles south of me is a treacherous stretch during the season.<br />On a lighter side, there's just something about a warm rain, puddles, and children that warms my heart!!<br /><br />Jimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05048908920247516125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6998770.post-80860110654151497522018-09-23T15:06:32.509-04:002018-09-23T15:06:32.509-04:00Tornados are fierce storms!

The raindrops look rather big.

It's not something we would have expected to learn about in Canada. Apparently, the kids enjoyed the rain more so than most other folks.Beatrice P.
