There she blows

For the second time in a week were under a tornado watch. While its nice to have a nice cool breeze while naked at a resort, winds exceeding 50 mph would be a bit too much. Hopefully none of our resorts in the NW part of our state will be affected by these storms. A few years ago while at Turtle Lake in southern Michigan we discovered the tree that we always parked nearby had been blown over and removed. Best wishes to those who camp at resorts during times like this.

Radar shows the storm near South Bend about 150 miles from us now. Time to bring in our lawn chairs and secure the hatches. Im reminded of the 1965 tornadoes that did major damage and loss of lives during Palm Sunday. Stay safe!

Like other natural disasters such as floods, droughts, forest fires, bomb cyclone blizzards and hurricanes, tornadoes in this warmed climate are becoming more frequent and more destrutive. May God help us to help ourselves return to good stewardship of this beautiful planet.

How did you make out with the storms?

All we got was rain and thunder. Theres an old Indian saying that areas with 3 rivers will be protected from tornadoes. I think the storm moved through too quickly to cause any harm. How about you?

A lot of rain and noise but no damage. Merrillville and Portage got hit hard.

I wonder if being close to the lake had any bearing on that. Hope there werent any casualties.

Not that I heard of. I think it was just property damage.
