We had a tornado warning yesterday, it was SO intense! I didn't know there was such a thing in Idaho but apparently it is more common than I thought.
I was just watching TV with my brother, minding my own business when all of the sudden he asked me if I had heard about the Tornado warning today. I thought he was joking so he told me to look it up. At this time it was about 3:40. Sure enough there was a warning that was ongoing until 4:15.
We immediately went outside on the lawn to observe. The sky was like nothing I had seen before.
It never touched down but you could see the rotation of the clouds. The wind, rain, and hail we got hit with was something fierce. The news repeatedly told us to go into a basement or room with no windows but we couldn't resist watching the weather. Drew and I both love tornadoes.
The news was saying that the strongest rotation was over the Burley airport, which is right across the river from my house.

The hail sounded like it was going to break our windows and the wind blew our trash can from the side of my house, all the way over to my car.
This was a picture a friend sent me:
I've never seen a sky like that...
The sunny opening in the sky is where the cone of the tornado was...
After the storm the geese wanted in the house, they pecked on the window for at least a half hour.
