Is there really enough difference between a baseball and tennis ball to necessitate a distinction?
Look at your notification settings for your weather app. For some reason it is in a different place than other warnings such as Amber alerts.
I don't think my sump has ever ran, it's bone dry currently. But we are on the top of a hill here.
There has been a cell like 5 miles south and east of us that hasn’t moved in an hour. Light show has been impressive. Dalmatian is not impressed though. Currently shaking in bed between me and the gf. Gonna be a long night.
