Today: 0.0 mi
Trip: 645.17 mi
Now, NOAA weather radio is wrong about 99.9% of the time. Even so, when they are calling for waterspouts, hail, 40 mph gusts and tornadoes it is hard to ignore. The thunder in the distance sealed the deal and we decided to stay in Herbster another day.
We walked into town, this time to eat at Tracy's, the other restaurant in town. Bottomless coffee, a buttery breakfast, and being questioned by the locals was our morning. We pretty much met the town, handed out our blog, and went on our way. Did I mention Herbster has a laundromat? Well it does and that is just how we spent our afternoon. Clean clothes are wonderful!
By the time dinner rolled around we had had a thunderstorm, tornado watch, and a tornado warning issued. Barbara from Ontario insisted we take shelter in her camper if this really picked up. Instead we headed back to Tracy's to watch TV and hear the going ons. All in all there were three tornadoes, two within 20 miles of our camp. We were glad we stayed put and went to bed after the last thunderstorm rolled through and a double rainbow made a showing.
