unbelievable..We have a tornado warning for Phoenix and
northern Arizona. Who woulda thunk?
And here I am in Oklahoma
thunderstorms and lightning and wind and no tornado!
just got an update. It will head east to you guys
in tornado alley after leaving here.
Boy that was close!
60 mph straight winds blew over our 50’ tall Pecan tree in the middle of the dog pen. The white box is her house. She bolted out and was under the porch swing!
It narrowly missed the boat, RV, and shop building! Praise the Lord.

near miss
Sorry about the tree, but glad it missed the important stuff. It got wild here for a while about dark.
In the daylight. I have thanked God all night
It is very interesting that is was perfectly laid out to not do any real damage, a real blessing. I hate it for the kids. It was a fantastic shade and my daughter used to hang a hammock chair from it inside the dog pen and read while interacting with the dog, Lucy.
In the pen was a concrete bench that my father bought my mother some 45 years ago. The tree literally fell on it splitting the top and not touching the uprights on each side. That is kind of ominous but I'm grateful for the direction it fell.
