Watching these awful storms (even hail in Colorado), is scary.

You sound very cool-headed, and practical.

I hope all goes well for you, and glad you are prepping.

I have to say that I find storms rather refreshing. I enjoy the winds, thunder, lightning. I hate storms that cause damage injure or take lives, damage or destroy property. My thoughts and prayers always go out to those affected by damaging storms. I've had property damage from storms many times throughout my life but those that just come and go with no issues can be very relaxing to me. I guess this stems from my grandma who while scared of storms, usually set on the porch to watch them as they do their thing and pass on. My mom doesn't like storms and says that my sister and I are weird to love storms so much. Occasionally I get an email from mom warning me of a storm that she noticed coming through East Texas and then closes the email with "I don't know what's wrong with you and your sister, loving storms so much". I am fortunate that I have never been affected by a devastating storm, but feel for those who have.
