We’re at a slight risk of severe weather in PA. AccuWeather is saying a severe storm is going to hit and I’m freaking out. I’m trying to enjoy the fourth with my bf but I can’t get it out of my head.
I'm trying not to spiral but it is pretty difficult not to. Granted it's just due to wind, but it doesn't stop making me worry about possible tornadoes. Even if it is only wind, I'm worried about damage or my power being knocked out while it's still severely hot. I knew there was a chance of severe weather by the end of the week but I was hoping it would lessen.
I am BEYOND fing exhausted. We are possibly get severe storms ALL THIS WEEKEND. And EVEN MONDAY. That is FOUR DAYS FULL of severe potential. I can’t even begin to describe how exhausted, terrified and frustrated I am right now. I just want a GOOD DRY FCCKING WEEK IS THAT TOO MUCH TO GODDAMN ASK? I guess it is. This is my life now isn’t it? No rest, no relaxing weeks, just severe weather every goddamned week. I’m about ready to just quit.
I live in the philly area and we're supposed to get severe weather on Saturday and Sunday I mostly afraid of the thought of tornados and powerful winds.
I’m currently shaking. I’m in Mississippi, with a big yellow bullseye over my state. I don’t see anything about tornadoes, no, but that doesn’t mean things won’t upgrade. I guess what scares me the most is being alone in this. Usually, I have someone to stay with me, but they’re on vacation in another country and will be gone for two weeks, and my family lives five hours away, so I can’t ask them.
Out of all the times for weather threats, they happen when I have no one with me. I’m having flashbacks, and I want to throw up. I hate Mississippi so god damned much.
UPDATE: We are under a Severe Thunderstorm watch now! How fun is that? 😭
Hi! Has anyone ever experienced this before. There’s currently a storm beginning with very strong winds. I looked up to the sky and saw what I can only explain as if Batman like projectors were moving their light around inside the clouds,I’m thinking it could be a different form of lightning maybe but it didn’t light the whole cloud like lighting usually would.
If anybody has any idea what it could be I’d be very grateful
Thanks !
We live in a tornado prone area and very recently she’s gotten to the point that we can’t even talk about or watch the weather without her getting physically anxious (bubble guts, farting etc). We’ve tried to calmly explain that we’re here to keep her safe and that we have a storm shelter in our garage (we’ve used it numerous times). I’ve tried books, videos, explaining what’s happening, talking through why she feels scared, validating her fears you name it.
It’s worth mentioning that when we do get tornados her dad and I model calm direct behaviors. We plan ahead so there is no last minute scrambling we just gather our bag and calmly go down into the shelter. I typically give her activities or talk to her to distract her during it but it’s gotten so bad. How can I ease her anxiety when she can’t handle conversations about it.
