Saturday In Tupelo, Mississippi

Friday evening brought some really bad thunderstorms.  We were glued to the local weather for hours.  There were first tornado warnings, then flash flood warning but they were in other counties.  The Tiffin visitors center was opened at about 7 pm just in case the sirens went off.  Good thing all went well and we stayed in the coach.  It was all over by about 11 pm.
