Those waving live powerlines reminded me of Final Destination it's like they were trying to lure you in closer. My anxiety wouldn't allow me to be a storm chaser. I'm a storm runner.

Poor cows. Hope everyone stays/is safe in LA during this storm.
-
"I gotta go, Julia. We got cows!" Seriously though that is some mass destruction and I really hope no one got hurt.

I feel so sorry for the animals 😭🙏💔

I live up towards Alexandria, Louisiana; almost a stone's throw away if you will, and it's just occurred to me how surreal this all was as I was able to pretty much still go about my day with barely a cloud in the sky and a mild breeze. While at the same time, all of this was almost literally happening right next to where I live; I still can't get over how unreal that is.
