Tornado Warning (for 5.19.11)

The sky was frightfully green and the clouds were swirling. I looked through the mall’s glass ceiling, amazed. Then over the speakers came a warning:

For your safety, please move down to the lowest level of the mall. For your safety, please…

The warning came over and over again. Slowly we made our way to the lowest floor of the mall: Marshalls (I very much dislike Marshalls). We walked down the steps to the already crowded store. Roughly one-hundred people were jammed into the dirty store, in the lowest level of the mall. There’s nothing like a Minnesota tornado warning.
