[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The strong storms scares me these days. There were lightning and thunder about 5pm yesterday around here and I though something big was brewing. You know those crazy storms that we've been having with strong thunder and lightning.

My kids were at Soccer practice when that storm came through just south of Kensington.  We could hear thunder and see lightening in the distance.  Our Coach cancelled our practice after consulting an expert she knew who said to take shelter.

Another team of boys sharing our field continued to practice.  We told them what we had heard and the Mom/Coach/whatever snarkliy said" I like to live on the edge" and kept those little boys on the field!  As We left, the rain was pouring, big drops lo ess than a mile away.

She put those boys at risk.  This awful story of OBX tragedy clearly illustrates why you take shelter when a storm is nearby.  I was so angry for the parents who dropped their babies off with her and trusted her with their safety. And she thought she was soooo bad ass.  Idiot.
