Tornado Season

 I usually post about music on Wednesdays, but not today. Today I will be sharing a movie clip from Twister. The film came out in the late 90s and was my favorite from the first time I saw it. Today, across the Midwest we are expecting strong storms. Some producing tornado's, which has the storm chasers excited. Now, I want to say that just because they chase does not mean they want anyone to be in harms way. The first priority is to inform others. Then to track the storm and let others know where it is headed. Most times the storm chasers are first on the scenes of damaged areas, and are the first to help. Today, is the first potential outbreak for severe storms across a wide region. In light of the storms, the movie Twister always helped me be prepared. I am sharing with you my love for mother nature at her finest or at angriest, how you look at it.

If you live in any of the areas that are under this watch for the next couple of days, please take caution. Most people believe it will not happen in there town, or it will not happen to them. That just isn't true. Be alert, stay warned, and by all means if you chase PLEASE follow the right paths to chasing. Never get up close, never drive into one, and never think that it won't happen in your area.

Now, onto the video clip. I hope you get a giggle out of this, and I also hope that you see Mother Nature for all her glory.

Storms Raging

    Yesterday I was not feeling very well. Today, I am feeling back to my old self! I am not sure that is a bonus for most, but at least I have my thought process back. Today I will have 2 blog posts as I usually try to do. This is my first entry for today, and I keep thinking about the weather. We are expected to have a possibility of severe weather. That always gets me excited. You may be thinking why? Well, tomorrow I will go into a little about myself, but I grew up in Tornado Alley. For most, the weather, the severe weather makes them nervous. I just do not feel that. I get excited. Now, that being said, I do not ever want anyone to be harmed or hurt. That is the last thing anyone should want. I just like the anticipation process. This will play a part in my book. I love a good storm, but I like it better if you know what a storm feels like. Example. Have you ever been so mad that you feel like a storm is raging inside of you? Well, sometimes you have to release all of that. It may hit like a tornado, but you still had to let it out. Afterwards, you pick up the debris, and start a new day. This is life. For every action there is a reaction. Let your actions speak loud. Live your life as you seem fit. Let the storms roll in, and roll out. Feel the power you have in your own hands. Use them for the greater good. Everyone has a story. Are you going to just let the storm inside brew or are you going to let it out, and start a new day? BE STRONG! Be yourself, and as above, let your storm out! Your story isn't finished just yet!!
