Tornado warnings...

I woke up to heavy rain and according to the local weather announcement also tornado warnings. At first my supportdriver Morten and I gave it an hour to see if it cleared up a bit. There wasnt much change in the weather but I preferred to get a little running done instead of sitting in the motelroom all day.

I cant say it was the safest of conditions though; not so much the weather as the traffic and after 26km's I decided that it was safer to stop here instead of risking a driver on the highway not seeing me in the rain.

They have forecasted similar weather for tomorrow but in two days from now it should clear up and I can be back on longer distances.

PS: After the run I saw on the evening news that the tornatoes had done some heavy damage further inland and about 30 people had been killed when a tornado passed right through a little village. Definately weather conditions to be carefull about.
