After weeks/months of drought, it's been a very rainy couple of days here in southwest Missouri.
Storms Rolling in From the West
The thunder rolls across the prairie as severe storms brew to our west. We are under a tornado watch here at the moment, but tornado warnings have already been issued in counties just to our west.
Update: Right after I typed the above, I ran out to get a photo of the approaching storm. Next thing I knew tornado sirens were going off and there was a tornado warning issued for our area. We had quite the little adventure there for a few minutes, then everything cleared and, now, it's just rain. Praise the Lord!
