Storm Again

Sheesh! I don't know what is going on with this weather lately. We've never had such storm warnings before never mind tornadoes touching down this close to the city! The south eastern corner of Manitoba seemed to be in the warnings path before but now are getting hit repeatedly instead.

When I was driving over to Linda's yesterday around 5:00 pm I thought the sky was weird and then the news reported funnel cloud sightings north of the city and tornado damage south east of the city (about an hours drive) at La Broquerie that totally destroyed a farm house, shed and scattered machinery too. At least there are no fatalities reported. Hmmm Linda was taking off an hour later so I wonder what the sky looked like then from up there (same as what we see upwards or is it different?) or if they could see the swath of trees downed by the tornado after it hit the farm?

All is calm down here on this new front for me. Sure will be nice to relax this evening instead of winging off to the part time job.
