Be sure to update us to make sure you are safe! I hope you don't have to get rescued! @KingOfTheClouds So far so good. The rain picked up for a bit and there was a tornado warning southwest of where I am. The part that makes me nervous is getting home. I won't be leaving work until probably 10pm and by that time, the rain is going to be heavy again. Thanks for the concerns everyone Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
