sirens.

our crazy fall weather has taken a turn towards spring tonight. after a day of pretty much non-stop rain - and heavy. rain. at that - (the after effects of Lowell) the sirens started blowing around 5 o'clock tonight. it was suspiciously still out - that eerie nothing moving, but 100% plus humidity hanging in the air.

the weather folks were going crazy. they LIVE. LIVE. for this kind of stuff. we gathered everyone up and sat in the living room. the basement is a bit of a disaster right now, so i didn't want to head down there until absolutely necessary.

i headed outside to snap some photos of the cool clouds and the birds flying in formation in front of them. the sky was interesting. the clouds were crazy. we never made it to the basement, luckily, although they say there was a touch down about 2 miles away from us.

all in a pre-fall, but spring like day in the midwest.
