The tornado sirens went off 🌪️ and my television blinked off. It's a deluge of water and lightning. This year, Illinois has had 54 (fifty four) tornadoes, more than any other state in the nation. It's only April. The 2nd tornado warning went off and will expire at 11 PM. My sister who lives a bit south and west of me in the same county just texted me that her sirens went off too. Have to give it to the Midwest, the seasonal changes are very dramatic. Thanks again to my Magic Bunion for accurately predicting tonight's mayhem. My phone is charged and a flood warning is in effect now. 💦

@SecondStix@mindly.social I feel you. My wife and I are preparing to head to the basement if/when necessary.
