twister

[chrisy]

On the way home from shopping tonight I saw this thing in the sky it looked like a stream of black smoke twisting around in the air, but there are no chimney's near by, when we got home and saw the NEWS it said it was a twister that didn't touch down, thankfully. not seen one like that before. It has been very windy the last two days, glad not as windy as a lot of you have had.

apparently we get more than you do, but never on the scale of yours. Thankfully.
