@Nurse3: The wind woke me up about 30 minutes ago. Now I'm up spending some time with Michael Myers and Jamie Lee Curtis.

My stupid house alarm woke me up with the tornado warning.  I didn't even know that was on there.  It's been a rough night.  Son set off the alarm at midnight and woke the whole house up and then at 3 this.  On the radar it does look like there is some hook rotation heading our way.  Guess I'll just stay up until it passes. 4951

@Nurse3: I'll be up until it passes also. Many, many years ago when I was in 3rd grade, a tornado ripped through our small town the week before Halloween at 2:30 in the morning. The houses on either side of us were heavily damaged, but ours was just fine. On the next block, the house in the middle was destroyed and the others were fine. The randomness of the destruction was crazy. I don't know what good sitting up until it passes does for me, but it's something I always do!

@Leauxl: I know the feeling.  I grew up in Florida and there were many many tornados while growing up.  Never had one rip up my house,  but ever since I had kids if there is a tornado warning in my area, I stay up until it passes.  This house is a two story, so I just check everything out if I need to bring the kids downstairs until the danger has passed.

Looks like the big stuff is almost through the area.  Maybe I can get back to sleep in a little bit. 4951

@Nurse3: Mine too, and I always make sure the closet under the stairs has room for everyone to get inside if we need to.

@Annie: I'd say at least 3 inches so far. I'm sure it's more in some places and less in others!

Yeah, it was coming down like crazy about 1am.  I almost got up then, but was just too stubborn and wanted to lay in bed even though I was awake.  4951

@Leauxl: Our master area has a pretty good hallway that we can close all the doors and there is no windows.  When we first moved in here, I told the kids to get in my walking closet, but then when we practiced I realized that if we closed the bedroom door, office door and bathroom door, we would be in the middle of the house with no windows.  Lots more space than my closet for 5 people.  LOL

We have a single story house and tiny closets for the ones on non-exterior walls. The guest bathroom tub looks like our best option for safety. 4951
