i think its because weather is big business now and early warning systems have vastly improved and what we as kids knew as a thunderstorm on US, we had no idea it killing people a state away with tornadoes
i am grateful we get , maybe some tooo early warnings, but combined with MWS and the personal weather station network...in my house we get dammmm real time info and can make some decisions based on very accurate data before we bail into the shelter
today we were prepared for bad and only little bad arrived in the form of tons of rain and then its moving on
 
Been a very long time ago in Nebraska when my grandpa was going to take me to town. Back then no sirens or phone alerts as the phone hadn't rang in a couple days. We went out to the pickup and he turned the key , then tried again but nothing. He grabbed me and we head towards the basement just as we got there Grandma came down with some sandwiches,hard boiled eggs and a couple of big thermos bottles. Things began to shake and the noise was intense. Then it got so quiet like I had never heard B4. Then the rattle of things started again and the faded away next day we headed over to the neighbors but grampa stopped to show me something. The wood fence is was down and pieces missing but some fence posts were still up. He took me to a post and a piece of straw was sticking out both sides of the post. We took it back to the house a picture could be taken. I took pictures back and to school for show and tell. I have been in 3 hurricanes, 2 were at see.
 
First level has been breached.

Drinking Several cold beers, as a residential as well as commercial materials salesman it has been a tuff week. I mainly deal with large multi family housing jobs. 500 unit plus apartment complexes etc. New construction as well as rehab. Hard to know how to bid material with the "Tarrif" pissing contest that is going on. When you ask vendor how long price is protected, they say "until we end this call". I trust DJT but things are a little stressed right now.
 
Woke up to 15 degrees and sunshine this morning. Supposed to get to the low 40s today, then back down to the teens tonight. March is supposed to be the weird month, but hey. Hoping you guys in the rain soaked south get some relief very soon.

I was hoping to stay home today but we are going into Fargo. Since my stepdad passed some five years ago and my mom left Texas and moved to Canada, I have been keeping some military things that my sister sent me when she went through the house. One of those things is a large shadow box of his military medals and a flag he received when he retired. I was finally able to find his nephew who lives in Allentown, PA, and I know my stepdad would want him to have it, so we're carting it into town and shipping it out UPS. I already sent a smaller box out and they delivered it in three days.

After that, maybe I can convince the husband to stop at the range and put some lead downrange (I doubt it though because when I brought that up last night, he immediately told me he was on a mission. Whatever..). We'll end up at Menard's. Range will be busy anyway..
