I credit Stan Boney with saving my life and keeping me out of the tornado's path. He was the only meteorologist in the area. I listened to his forecast earlier that day (or maybe the previous night) as I was getting ready for work.
Later that afternoon we planned to get a take out dinner from a restaurant that was located in the eye of the tornado. I remembered that Stan said conditions would be perfect for a tornado. There was not a cloud in the sky but my skin felt clammy and eerie. We opted to stay home and 15 minutes later they said the tornado devastated that area.......Thank you , Stan.
