TV weather lady said to go to your basement. What basement?! I live in a mobile home!

2. Thanks. Watching weather on TV.
It is moving into Cobb County next door to me. Hope it avoids my county. Been lucky. The tornaodes that hit Georgia last year skipped over my county, but were close. So far, I haven't heard the tornado sirens going off.

3. I might suggest going somewhere else
Mobile Homes seem to be magnets for Tornados

Hope you'll make it out ok!

4. Oh shit!! Tornado sirens going off now.
No time to go anywhere else. I am hoping I will get lucky again and the tornado skips over like it did last year.

6. What a relief! The tornado warning has been canceled
in my county. But the weather guy said there is a possibility of strong straight line winds.

8. Straight line winds are what dumped 8 trees on the mobile home I lived in.
Many years ago, not too far from here.
I had twice evacuated my mobile home during very server winds, the 2nd time lost the house.
I would hope you would have a Plan B for when the weather gets like it was today.

7. Here, too.
The really bad stuff is just to the south of here. It started rolling in just around the time I was going to leave to go to spinning class at the gym. I stayed home.
