Well, yesterday, we had ourselves a tornado warning issued round 9:00 PM (really don't remember the time) I know there was a Severe Thunderstorm watch.
My new Weather radio went off cause I programed it for my county & the county my family lives in & it said a Tornado warning was issued for Brookings County.
My own safety plan went into immediate effect & went out & got thes vid of the incomming tornado warning, & the sirens

Why thank you.
Well, Thursdays tornado naturally made it into the paper.
"Brookings 'Weathers' Tornado scare
The bite was there Thursday evening, but Brookings got mostly the bark when a super-cell skated sound the city.
A meager .36 of an inch of rain fell; no hail or heavily winds materialized; and residents were treated to a noisy, rumbling light show as thunder and lightning rolled through.
But what Phillip Schumacher, a meterologist with the Sioux Falls office of the National Weather Service, called an "isolated supper-cell with rotation, the only thunderstorm in the area' came close enough to call for the warning siren(s) to sound in Brookings somewhere between 9 and 10 p.m. It was the first time the siren(s) had sounded since September 2007.
The surrounding area, however, did not escape unscathed. Lake Campbell was reported to have received half-inch hail. The storm moved west to east, going by Ramona, Sinai, Volga and the southern edge of Brookings before moving on to Aurora and Elkton and crossing the boarder into Minnesota.
Schumacher said there was a report of a tornado briefly touching down about 12 miles south of Arlington but no damage was reported.
Whew! and today while going to Sioux Falls yours truly got stuck in another storm, a severe Thunderstorm 44 miles south of Brookings on I-29. Got a brief vid of it. and we got more chances of even more weather tommorow! MAKE IT STOP!
