Update on the Storms...

I just found out more about the storm that happened as I left church. As it turns out, it was a tornado that was about half a mile from the church. My family and I were unknowingly running from a tornado, not a thunderstorm.

On the news, they are showing Carbondale, Illinois. It is completely black there. I live in Kentucky. We are expected to get hail that is 2 1/2 inches in diameter, approximately the size of a baseball, deadly lightning, tornadoes, and high winds. It's sprinkling right now, so the bad weather should be any minute now.
