Very soon we will go from cold early spring to warmer spring days. We don't have much in between. While our last freeze date is mid-April, this year spring has come early. It will be interesting to see how the spring weather will play out. It has been a fairly mild winter. When a cold front meets up against a warm front - well, this is what happens where I live.
Tornado season is nigh. Though this one is only a Force one or two, it can still wreak havoc if one is in its path. A Force 5, or stovepipe tornado, literally takes up the grass and pavement along with everything else; it can be more than a mile wide and may stay on the ground for hundreds of miles. Nothing will be left standing.
The Choctaw Nation installed a free underground tornado shelter for us last year. I doubt it will get used, at least by me. Usually I am out scanning the skies, looking for them. If a Force 5 is coming though, I'll be down in the fraidy hole. I do have a little sense.
