I'm fine. The storms came through here around 1:30 am and had a minor amount of lightning and thunder.
I've lived in the Midwest for all but nine years of my life and have yet to see or be affected by a tornado.
The warming spell this weekend was awesome. This is the kind of weather that Kansas City normally has--in recent years we've had long winters (at least for us).
The ironic thing is that we got our new furnace working at the infoshop on Sunday when it was 50 outside. We haven't been open much in the past two weeks, but we managed to keep open hours during some cold weeks in December.

Shit! I'm sorry to hear that. It's good to hear that you are okay, at least physically.
Are you up in the Chicago area?
