I told Kaz, Kat, and Tid, so I might as well tell the story here too. ^_^
Today I was playing on the JoH server and it was raining outside. Well I thought it was no big deal so I kept playing with the music turned up and I hadn't heard thunder. I turned the Music down just a little and I heard the thunder. I was getting ready to leave the server when all of a sudden the tornado sirons went off. Immediently I left the server and Mother yelled "SARAH GET DOWN IN THE BASEMENT!"
So I left my room and was heading towards the basement and then Mom offered to let me come outside to see the storm. I, not thinking it was much of a big deal and that it was only a bad storm, went outside with Mother and looked into the clouds.
Up in the clouds a Funnel cloud was forming. It was my first time I ever ACTUALLY saw a almost-tornado (it was very, VERY close to the ground).
I'd hoped to see an F1 as a tornado the first time I see one... Unfortunatly that funnel cloud was an F4. So I stood there, horrified (stupid me).
*What's gonna happen? Will the house be destroyed? What about grandma.. How will we get her down to the basement?! Oh God please don't let it touch the ground!* Grandma was disabled in a wheelchair and the basement stairs were too steep for her to get down.
I was so worried for my grandmother I started bawling.
I guess my prayer was answered and the cloud began to dissappear and move away and I ran inside to hug Grandma. I was pretty much traumatized.
I know I'm a big baby, aren't I? But I thought it was scarey!
