It was a normal Saturday morning when mom told me to turn on the news. I turned it on and a forcast said there was a Tornado!!! I grabbed some boardgames and me, mom, dad, and Jett went in the basement. After a while we decided to come out, but we suddenly saw our lights flicker on and off. The power was out! Later me, dad, and Jett went to the store. Luckily the power wasn't out there. When we came home the power was still out. By 7:00 pm it was on. That made it 7 hours or more of power outage. On March 25 I saw what made the power outage so long. The power line poles had fallen over, causing power lines to fall to the ground. I'm so glad the power came on so soon. It was pretty bad, and it was only about 4-10 miles away! Also all the rain is helping clear the drought. I'm thankful God made me safe.
