I'm in Conroe, Texas. Last week I had to get in my bathroom with my puppy and put a big cushion on top of us and I put on a motorcycle helmet I have for that purpose and hoped we weren't going to be killed. There was circulation over the town and the hook was there on the radar and the weather channel was saying for everyone in my town to take cover that they didn't know if it was going to drop to the ground.

I could see in my mind what happened to Moore and really thought I'd had it. After thirty-five minutes the weather channel said it was okay, it didn't drop to earth.

I have left that big love seat cushion leaned against the wall in that bathroom because it's difficult for me to get it in there and until this tornado weather changes, the cushion is staying there.

I'm watching the weather channel now as this deadly weather moves around. This has just been terrible in Texas, people killed here and terrible in Oklahoma with people killed.

Looking at west of St. Louis, tornado debris field. I pray for everyone in danger tonight.

“It looks like Texas may be back in the barrel tomorrow evening.”

Really - didn’t know that. I’ve had my tornado scare for the year; don’t want another.

I’m so frightened for the people stuck in traffic. If it were me I would not stay in the car but would be out in a field.
