Yes, we are. Thankfully, the worse of the storm bypassed central Texas,
we only got a lot of rain. I was worried because we were under a tornado
warning all afternoon, and I was stuck at work.
It's that time of the year again, with storms and tornadoes it seems.

Thanks for asking!

We got a ton of rain, too; I didn't realize the storms went all the way to S.
Texas. The town where Steve Touchstone lives was on the news; there  was a lot
of damage to the college and some businesses but AFAIK there weren't any
serious injuries.

There were certainly  strong wind when the front moved through town,
but no real damage here where I live. One board blew off the fence,
and looking at it the wood where it was nailed was rotted, so it was
ready to be replaced anyway. We had received about 1.4 inches of rain
during the night and day before the big gust of wind, and only .2
inches when that short, but strong, storm came through.

It just lasted a few minutes, and once that storm was gone it was
pretty much over. In fact I was driving home when it came through,
about 4 blocks from home, and it was done before I got home.

Of course, when I did get home, Sammy was in hiding, sure that the
storm monster was going to eat her up. And time Rocky was outside, so
of course I was worried how he weathered the storm. Course I really
don't need to worry, since a couple hours later he came sauntering up
to the door, completely dry and acting like nothing had happened. I'm
sure his biggest concern was that the chair on the patio had water
puddled on the seat.

They had quite a bit of damage where my DH works, (Republic, out on W. Lee).
RE: Rocky. How in the *world* do cats manage to do that. Bootsie was outside
and I soaked myself calling her and hunting her. She also sauntered up about an
hour later, bone-dry.

One of the advantages of being a short, furry person, besides being superior
to hoomins, is that you can fit under small spaces outside and stay dry till
the storm monster is gone.

We had tornados in Mich. In 1980 one passed over my apt building after tearing
up downtown Kalamazoo. It killed half the trees in the park
