I'm glad you are safe, Cillaliz. How frightening!

I'd see about staying right inside the park, JMK. Flagstaff is quite a ways away. There's a town right outside the park gates, too.

Wae-Ling Goldstein and I spent the day at the Migration Celebration at the river.

Thanks Laura. They have a new policy to blow the sirens when there is a severe thunderstorm with winds predicted over 60 mph. That's what the first warning was, but the tornado warning really shocked me, we don't get that many tornado warnings unless one is on the way

All three cats are curled up sleeping, guess they've gotten over the excitement

Migration of birds or people?

Cillaliz · « **Reply #156 on:** April 09, 2011, 08:49:10 PM »

I do give kudos to the weathermen on two of our local stations. They have been broadcasting nonstop since 6:00 PM and it's almost 11:00 PM

Cillaliz · « **Reply #157 on:** April 09, 2011, 08:50:15 PM »

I've heard at least 2 towns have been hit hard, only a few minor injuries reported so far. Double digits in tornadoes and they are still happening. Crazy night

JMK when I went to the Grand Canyon (30 years ago) I was able to stay inside the park http://www.grandcanyonlodges.com/?gclid=CNKm-K-FkagCFQWD5QodAAh_1A

I still remember getting up before dawn to stand at the rim and watch the sun rise over the canyon

Tornado Free Vibes for Cilla, the Cats and the neighbors!!

Bats, monarchs, birds.

We don't have storm sirens.

The Maswik Lodge is a short walk to the canyon rim. If you have money, though, check into the Bright Angel or El Tovar.

Has anyone heard from TCB?

I rely on my weather radio and the tv more than I do on the sirens. I did find out tonight I can hear them from my house. That's nice to know

Cillaliz · « **Reply #165 on:** April 09, 2011, 09:10:41 PM »

I'm hoping that the storms aren't too intense when they get to Decorah. Would hate to see problems for the eagles

Cillaliz · « **Reply #166 on:** April 09, 2011, 09:13:38 PM »

I am glad I waited until tomorrow to go to visit my parents. With the severity of the storms, I would have been a basket case worrying about the cats and the house if I had stayed up there tonight

Cillaliz · « **Reply #167 on:** April 09, 2011, 09:14:06 PM »

Just heard another town had damage, houses leveled and people missing. Sheesh! That's three towns now

Laura · « **Reply #168 on:** April 09, 2011, 09:19:14 PM »

Today I went for a walk, and this is what I saw:

I hope the storms are done for today, Cillaliz. How very scary!

They are done here, but the watches go until 5:00 AM. I'm listening to a storm chaser on the Weather Channel call it "Epic"

Cillaliz · « **Reply #172 on:** April 09, 2011, 09:36:04 PM »

Hummingbirds?

Laura · « **Reply #173 on:** April 09, 2011, 09:36:50 PM »

Very wee ones, Cillaliz.

Cillaliz · « **Reply #174 on:** April 09, 2011, 09:37:48 PM »

The weather chaser just told about another town that was hit. Good grief. I hate to even imagine the damage. It's lightning and thundering on the eagle cam now

Cillaliz · « **Reply #175 on:** April 09, 2011, 09:39:18 PM »

well, the cats have all calmed down. Boo is sleeping on my lap so she's not mad at me anymore. I need to go to sleep. I have to leave by 7:00 AM to get to my brother's house for coffee at 9:00

night

CALM, CLEAR WEATHER VIBES to DR CILLALIZ! Ugh! Tornados are really scary. Hope you remain unscathed.

ROPE OF SAND is indeed a lovely film in many ways. Not your usual film noir, but lots of colorful characters. I especially liked Peter Lorre's character.

Jeanne · « **Reply #178 on:** April 09, 2011, 10:02:20 PM »

Allergies-begone vibes to BK.

Congrats to DR JRand on his new Sony Vaio computer.

Does anyone know how to pronounce "Vaio"? Two syllables or three? I am always confused when lots of vowels are stuck together.
