Tornado Warning...







We don't get them often, 
but we had a severe thunder storm warning, and tornado warnings
out for Regina today...

We didn't get any tornados that I am aware of,
but we sure did get the thunder storms...
and more rain then I have seen in 8 years of living here...

The thunder was so loud that I was a bundle of nerves
all afternoon...and I normally LOVE thunder storms..
What I couldn't understand was how my
one and three year old managed to sleep through it!
We had so much rain, that as you can see...
our road flooded...
I walked out in my shorts into the lake after the rain slowed down,
and it was almost up to my knees...
One of my neighbors almost didn't make his drive way 
in his truck...

Later this evening, hubby and I went to Costco..
and wouldn't you know it?
When we came out..it had started again..
We were soaked withing three seconds flat...

We too have been receiving a lot of rain--it has been hard to plan a day as each morning there is a percentage of rain in the forecast--so we cancel things and it doesn't happen, and then we plan things and it pours! Ugh!

It can be scary because it's so out of our control ... very dramatic pictures!
