Cold enough that when I left my lighters on the table instead of keeping them in my pocket they wouldn't light.
I want to see my TV weather-casters adopt this as one of the designators of temperatures.

We usually get a good 35+ temp swing between night and day here during this time of year. Was 48 this morning, 82 now.

I was hunkered down in my designated safe spot on my slab of concrete, an interior closet with multiple walls outward beyond that. There's was a tornado warning, and it seemed like it was aiming right at me. The good news is they just said they have seen nothing on their screen indicating flying debris detection. Looks now like it is farther to the north of me as it is passing by. Glenn is to the south of me so I have not tried to text him up. I think they'll be fine.
But I did send Paul a text about 12:15 central because they had a warning about the same time in Columbia. Haven't heard back yet.

Paul’s all good. Got a text reply from him about 4:30am.
Thanks for checking on me, my phones woke me up with all the alerts, I checked the radar and the local weather folks telling everyone to take cover, it appeared to me to be tracking a mile or two south of the house so I said a prayer rolled over and went back to sleep, I didn't see Bob's message till I woke up. Columbia has downed trees and storm damage a couple miles south of me.
Round after round of severe Storms and Tornadoes through west and Middle TN. Texted @Bob_Luken he is good, or at least safe the tornado headed towards them down graded to a severe storm. Several bad storms last night in the general area.

I'm in Tampa, my nephew tells me my houses are still good, Faye's bailing water in her house. Many areas are evacuating.
