We were sweating it out a couple days ago…

two tornado warnings were issued for our area (Kalamazoo county), one on radar was heading directly our way… but none came down to the ground. Lucky for us all.
Really poured rain, however. That and today’s all day rain has resulted in some flooding in lower areas.
