It had been a while, but our phones blew up again today with all kinds of weather warnings. At first, a severe weather warning, then a severe thunderstorm warning, and eventually a tornado warning. Officially we are in Tornado Alley, but luckily it’s extremely rare to see a tornado touchdown in Austin. One thing is for sure, even though the thunder wasn’t that bad, the rain came pouring down in true Texas fashion today. Our backyard turned into a river for the first time this year, and I’m sure it won’t be the last. (April 2019)
