Day Without Sun

The sun never came out today in Lake Worth, and there was no sunset. The sky just got a bit darker than it already was. The wind lashed at windowpanes and whipped this way and that all day long, with the rain coming down in torrents and blowing right into the house if you dared open the window or door after many hours trapped inside to see what things might be looking like out there.

There was a report of a tornado at 12th Avenue North in between J and K Streets. A woman living on K Street said she laid down to take a nap in the late afternoon when she heard a high whistle and heard a loud bang. She jumped up and, grabbing her two dogs, ran into the bathroom. When she went outside a short time later she saw that the neighbor's fence had been uprooted and another neighbor, who was outside, said he saw the twister come through.
