July arrives in a whirlwind
Tuesday, July 1st, 2008Wouldn’t you just know it - a brief tornado touchdown in my town, not just my county, but my town, and do I get a picture of it? No! I could just - oh I don’t know, growl at someone.
From what we heard, there was supposedly two tornadoes spotted. One in Sebring, and another coming into Highlands County from Desoto County. I’ve not seen any verification of the second one, but the first one did briefly touchdown out in Spring Lake.
I didn’t get to see it, not for lack of trying though. What I did see though was some beautiful rotation right above my house. Nothing became of it, but it was cool and a little scary to watch.
I so need to get updated video camera and a data card for laptop…
Meanwhile - out in the far Atlantic, there is a wave coming off coast of Africa that is being watched.
