Or more to reinforce it my brain, since I failed some of
these things…
1.
Weather interruptions on the TV
a. When
network TV is repeatedly interrupted with maps of approaching dangerous
weather, this may be more than an annoyance.
(Unlike interrupting network televised shows to focus on Albert Pujols
leaving St. Louis – with was NOT in the interest of anyone.)
b. While
their record on reading the radar and reporting accurately is a bit like
playing the slots, they probably know it better than me.
2.
Weather sirens
a. Locally,
they have updated sirens and performed tests ad nauseam. They could mean something. When the siren first sounds, could be time to
move purse, communication devices and safe storage box downstairs – have credit
card and check book, will travel, after all!
b. When
the siren continues to scream at your disbelieving butt, it could be time to seriously
consider moving that happy ass to the safest/lowest location. Like sooner, rather than later?
c. When
they still go off and the TV is showing “stuff” as close as the next city, that
is seriously the time to grab 4-leggers and head to the lower level. NOW!
3.
If you have hounds who are horrified at the
thought of the insides stairs, put your big kid pants on, harness them, leash
them and get them downstairs.
4.
If the electric company tells you a limb that
dragged the wire’s mount off a house tells you to consider the line “live”,
believe them. Not worth taking a chance.
5.
Finally, dogs do not poop or pee on command in
the torrentially pouring rain, no matter how many times you walk them to the
park late at night and stand in deep water…
In all seriousness, listen to the sirens and act
accordingly.
