David -- is Indianapolis in "Tornado Alley"? We are in it and also on the New Madrid Fault -- so our danger comes in earthquakes and mostly tornadoes.
I'm going to go look at the weather for Indianapolis and see what it's doing! I hope they passed you up.
There have been SO MANY tornadoes this spring so far. :o

Yep -- they had one.
Let us know what went on in your neighborhood, David -- when you get power back.
David In Indy:
Thanks for your concern Richard and Shasta! I'm fine. That tornado today touched down a little bit southeast of me. So I never even saw it! :)
To answer your question Shasta, yes, Indiana has a very high frequency of tornadoes, just like Arkansas. April, May and June, along with September and October seem to be the active months for us - probably a bit earlier in the year for all of you in Arkansas! :)
Here's a map of tornado activity in the United States. The green and dark green areas indicate the trouble spots where tornadoes like to spawn.
Thanks for your concern guys! I appreciate it! :-*
Shasta542:
Yay! You didn't lose power, huh? I hate when that happens! >:(
Glad all is well with you there. :-* ;D
It's sunny and windy here. On my way home from work, I stopped to get gas (liquid gold) :P and the wind was blowing so hard, I thought I was on the Great Plains! :)

Nope. We never lost our power. Some sections of the city DID lose it, but ours stayed on. Yeah, I hate it too when it happens Shasta, especially at night.
Liquid gold! :laugh:
I heard someone say on the news gas could hit $5.50/gallon by the end of the summer. I hope it's not true! :(
