Was quite the storm... they closed the dorms and made everyone go to the tunnel... kinda stupid I think...

Sucks about the dorms... interesting though. I never had to do that in my 2 years in the dorms. According to the Grand Forks Herald, a tornado passed through Northwood, and also passed 4 miles south of Grand Forks.

I got a couple good pictures, haven't taken them off the camera though. Of course, the BEST lighting strikes happened between pictures...

Selke wasn't forced to go to the tunnel, but I went to the front door to check the storm and saw everyone in the tunnel. Some of the RA's knocked on doors and told us to go to the tunnels when we wanted.

I took a lot of pictures; most of the better ones from the airport and University Apartments. I'll try to post them either later tonight or tomorrow.

It was a good storm, a very great light show when the rain subsided too! Mr. Leisure definitely took some great pictures of all the lightning
