My boss got a really serious phone alert and google is even giving me a warning. My coworker got notice that his kids aren't allowed to leave school. I guess one touched down in Berks County and did some damage, so Lehigh and Bucks are now on high alert. We were asked to take shelter until 4:15. 

oh wow.  I just googled where it touched down.  that's really close to where I grew up.  (I mean, 8 miles.  that's close for there) My aunt used to work at that Holiday Inn.  Our favorite pizza place is (apparently still there) in the clocktower plaza just up the street a bit.  (Antonios pizza.  if you're ever on the turnpike and are hungry around Morgantown.  Might still be delicious!)

Thursday is now tornado day where I live apparently.  Two weeks in a row, like clockwork, I get the alert that there's a tornado warning in my county, the schools are sheltering in place and then I drive home wondering if today is the day the neighbor's big half dead tree falls on our house.  so that's been freakin' weird.  I honestly can't think of a single actual active tornado warning WITH ACTUAL TORNADOS in the time I've lived here.  uhhh...11 years.  The one last week was about 3 miles from my house as the crow flies.  This weeks' was further. 

Yep. I was inside my kids' school for the second Thursday in a row waiting it out. Pretty sure this one went right through the yard of one of my employees.
