TravelingChris Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 We are currently under a tornado watch and the Weather Channel has us at Torcon 8 which means a 80% chance of a tornado tonight. Our bad weather isn't here yet but is supposed to be here until 2am. Just what I need after having insomnia last night. I hope boardies are safe from all the tornadoes out there.

marbel Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 I was about to say that we are having terrible weather but once I read your post I have to say our weather is great. Just heavy rain and dense fog, nothing serious like a tornado! Stay safe! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SparklyUnicorn Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Our weather is so odd. It's supposed to get in the high 60s tomorrow. Strange stuff. I'm not complaining though because I don't like snow or the cold. Stay safe... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennyD Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 We are under tornado watch too. I need to take some blankets and games downstairs in case we get stuck in the basement tonight. The thunderstorms just arrived. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foxbridgeacademy Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 We were under Tornado Warning and our town wide sirens blared for about 45 minutes..... it rained :glare: . I appreciate that we are in a high tornado incidence area but I spent quite a bit of time calming my DS (he's a serious worrier). I guess DH and I shouldn't have told him our survived a tornado stories? So now it's drizzling a bit and I love having the windows open and listening to it....

Guest Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Tornados are so scary to me, probably because I have not lived where they are common. We are getting endless rain and above-average temps...it doesn't feel like Christmas Eve Eve. My chicken pen is a mucky soup. I hate it when it gets like that. I will probably theow some straw down tomorrow to help it a little bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 I just read that a 7 yr old boy died in the storms. :( Nothing in my section of Iowa, but it looks like Eastern Iowa has some watches out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ausmumof3 Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 38c with 50kph winds so severe fire danger weather. Outdoor Webber BBQ is traditional for a lot of people and can't happen due to total fire ban. Police will be on duty actively monitoring roads for known arsonists. And the north of Australia is on cyclone watch. Hope everyone stays safe this Christmas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loowit Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 We are having interesting weather. We had floods and landslides a couple weeks ago. DH was stuck at work overnight due to a landslide. We are still getting a lot of rain so standing water is a problem in a lot of places. Then earlier this week we had a wind storm blow through that caused a lot of property damage and power outages. Several extended relations were without power for several days and a few had damage to their houses. We were fortunate and just lost a large limb on a tree in our yard which didn't cause any damage. I think we are supposed to be drying up a bit and getting colder. I am hoping that the roads dry out before it freezes. Icy roads are not much fun.

KrissiK Posted December 24, 2015 Share Posted December 24, 2015 Well, it's just raining here. And since California is having a drought, I wouldn't even classify this as bad weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tammi K Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 It's been snowing off and on all day. But, that's not bad. However, I would be a little happier if the temp wasn't 5F - that's a little nippy even for me. Safe holiday wished for those in weather intense areas. Stay safe.

Jan in SC Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 We had a tornado warning yesterday. It won't stop raining and now they are talking about opening the flood gates because of the high level of the lake. Hopefully it won't cause too many issues, but I'm sure many people near us are very fearful of that scenario. A friend in Alabama posted that her house was struck by lightning and caught on fire this afternoon. Thankfully, no one was injured and they were able to get into a hotel for a few days.
