Had my first tornado in years and I was home alone with my dogs and cat. I sat in the bathtub with them trying not to freak out. I did end up crying though because my anxiety went into overdrive.

@Seshi Yeah my fiance text me which fully woke me up (I was just waking up). He asked me how the weather was and when I looked outside, it was eerily quiet and the sky was a vibrant yellow. I checked the weather and it said I had a tornado warning for my area. The lights in my house suddenly went out (and it was still super quiet outside) which made me panic. I got my pets and ran into the bathroom and got in the tub. By the time I got into the bathroom the wind suddenly picked up (apparently we had 80mph winds) which made my anxiety even worse. I'm from WI and we don't typically get this kind of weather. Yeah some hail and heavy rain but tornadoes? Hardly ever. After that though it's been pretty nice weather now and the heat went down a lot (we were having 115°F heat index).
@Wedgy I'm from Wisconsin (born and raised) and we hardly ever get that kind of weather. Some hail and heavy rain are usually the most we see if we have severe weather (other than the typical snowstorm in the winter, to which we are known for, lol). So I was literally freaked out (plus I don't have a basement where I live). Not too much damage in my town thankfully; just some fallen trees and crap from other people's yards thrown around but other than that, nothing. Still was scary though. A few towns away weren't so lucky however. Supposedly my state had 14 confirmed tornadoes on Saturday (so far but the numbers keep climbing each day).
