[Steppes] Checking In

[Elaine]

Nothing for us  in the area east of White Rock Lake where we live,  
except our rain gauge overflowed after it reached 6 inches. A creek  
is in our backyard, but it didn't see as much action as I've seen  
before when the water wedged our cast iron yard furniture under the  
cyclone fence!

Being in the stairwell was a good idea, as one of the posts said.  
When I was a kid, we survived a tornado (that killed 117 people and  
wiped out downtown) by staying in the bathroom, my brother and me  
under a mattress in the bathtub.

This time, my family was blessedly kept safe. It is wonderful that so  
many of us missed having misfortune happen.
