And a night or so ago somewhere in the south it happened. The people in the trailer park had actually only 19 minutes to get to a safe place.
Now I know we don't have many tornadoes in New England - used to be able to say we had none but that's gone by the boards in the last few years - but things still do happen.
This may be my shortest post ever. We all need to be thinking about how fast and with what we can get out of Dodge. And where is a safe place to head to. Or where in our houses should we shelter in that 20 minutes.
People lost their lives, others are badly hurt - and still other were lucky enough so they "only" lost everything they owned and escaped with their family and lives intact.
It's up to us to be aware and protect ourselves and have a plan! And if I sound like a government announcement or a shill for the Weather Channel it just means that once in a while they are correct - just cause the government says it doesn't necessarily mean it's wrong!
Even a plan that doesn't work perfectly is a place to start! As my son says, you have to have something to deviate from!
I think there is no doubt what my point is this time!
