tornado on body of water during golden hour

The Tornado

Hi dad, it’s me, your daughter

I’m kinda scared so I just wanted to give you a call.  I know you are 2000 miles away, but I wanted to hear your voice.  In the 2 years I’ve been here I’ve grown to appreciate and enjoy the thunderstorms they have but this is different.

I came over to pick up Emily from dance practice and just as I got here the tornado warning sirens started to sound.  I’ve never been through a tornado warning before, so I was kinda nervous.

I’ve been standing here with others just looking out the window for the past 10 minutes.  Can you hear the sirens in the background?  The sky has gotten darker until now; looking west it’s almost black.  We’ve been able to see the funnel cloud for the last couple of minutes and it seems to be getting closer.

The sirens have stopped but I can still see the funnel cloud and it only seems to be a few blocks away now.  I wonder why the sirens stopped.

Well, guess I’d better go now.  Talk to you soon.  Love ya.

Bye
