Tornado watch

We have a tornado watch until 3am. This is already the second time this season and it's not even officially spring yet. I really hate when this happens at night. You can't see them unless you do during a lightening strike, and you are afraid to go to bed just in case. Right now it's too hard to tell from the radar if it's going to hit my area or not. I'm right at the bottom of the watch box. The storms are still in Indiana and a bit up into Michigan right now. Hopefully everyone will be ok tonight.

Yes, at least we don't have hurricanes/cyclones which are not only like a giant water tornado, but they can spawn off a ton of tornadoes. We get snow, ice, severe thunderstorms and tornadoes here. Oh, and sometimes earthquakes, although never a severe one (yet. There is a big fault line under Lake Erie).

I do believe spring is here, early as I expected with this unusually warm winter. It's going to be in the 60s and 70s all week, yay! My favorite temps actually. The sound Merlin was trying to teach me the other day is a wild bird call; I just heard that same bird in my barn this morning although I couldn't see it as it was in the overhang, probably making a nest. And there are birds mating in the field across the road.

Confirmed tornado tonight in Ida, Michigan. No reports yet on damage though. It is moving east now so others may also be in danger yet. Nothing going on in my area except lightening right now. An hour and a half ago it was beautiful when I brought the horses in. Keep everyone dealing with this storm in your thoughts and prayers.

I loved this winter, too, but geez, it's much too early for tornadoes, and watches every couple of days. This is really nuts. It looks like you have storms coming as well, so be safe. It looks I won't get hit for a few hours yet.
