This past weekend has been a series of severe thunderstorms and tornadic activity here in Ellis County. Both Friday night and last night we had tornado sirens blaring and tornadoes which touched down in Ellis county. Fortunately none of them traveled through Hays, but our neighbors in Ellis were not as fortunate: some damaged buildings, trees and downed power lines.
Yesterday Bob and I went to Larned to decorate graves and missed the tornado activity in Ellis and Rush County, (by a hair) and decided to eat in Larned to wait it out. Coming back we ran into torrential rain, and were relieved to know that we made it back to Hays before another tornado had been seen near Rush Center -- which we had driven through 30 minutes before!
God was watching over us! Today, more rain, but the cooler temperatures were welcomed!
